Abstract
McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is characterised by the clinical triad precocious puberty, polyostotic bone dysplasia and cafe-au-lait skin l esions. Some studies have shown the possibility of multiple endocrinol ogical disorders in this condition, especially thyroid disorders. We r eport the case of three girls with MAS and a heteromultinodular thyroi d at sonography, despite the fact that they were clinically and biolog ically euthyroid. This raises the question of the follow-up and treatm ent of these lesions.
