Maxillary fibrous dysplasia associated with McCune-Albright syndrome. A case study
McCune Albright syndrome (MCA) is a rare complication of genetic origin. The authors present a case study of a patient with MCA diagnosed with multifocal fibrous dysplasia in his limb and craniofacial bones.

Jaffe Lichtenstein Type Polyostotic Fibrous Dysplasia with Unilateral Absent Testis [PDF]
Fibrous dysplasias are developmental bone disorders in which the medullary cavity is replaced by fibrous tissue. It can be monostotic involving a single bone or polyostotic involving multiple bones.

A head start: The relationship of placental factors to craniofacial and brain development
Abstract In recent years, the importance of placental function for fetal neurodevelopment has become increasingly studied. This field, known as neuroplacentology, has greatly expanded possible etiologies of neurodevelopmental disorders by exploring the influence of placental function on brain development.

Categories of Cutaneous Mosaicism
ABSTRACT In this overview, the following 12 different categories of cutaneous mosaicism are considered: (1) Discrimination between monoallelic and biallelic mosaicism in autosomal dominant traits; (2) Segmental versus disseminated mosaicism in autosomal dominant disorders.

Clinical Classification of Mosaicism
Mosaic skin abnormalities can present under a segmental pattern or as ¡non‐segmental skin lesions. Non‐segmental mosaicism (Figure 1, a‐c), which is most common, includes individual point lesions, tumors, hamartomatous lesions, or malformations. Segmental mosaicism (Figure 2, a‐f)is less common and presents as asymmetric cutaneous lesions in one or ...

A Dominant Mutation in Gαs‐Protein Increases Hair Pigmentation
ABSTRACT We have identified a chemically induced mouse mutation which increases the eumelanic hair pigmentation. We identify a coding mutation, A3533G, resulting in an amino acid substitution Y1133C, in the Gnas gene encoding the Gαs subunit of the tripartite G‐protein, consistent with an activation of signalling via MC1R.
