Abstract Background: McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is a rare disease defined by the triad of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia of bone, skin spots, and precocious puberty. No available treatment is effective in changing the course of fibrous dysplasia of bone, but symptomatic patients require the rapeutic support to reduce bone pain and prevent fractures and deformities.we reported 1 case of McCune-Albright syndrome with exophthalmos in clinical practice. Case presentation:A 35-year-old female was admitted to our hospital who complained about “skin pigmentation for 35 years, vaginal bleeding for 30 years and progressive skeletal deformity for 28 years and exophthalmos for 2 years. And after the examination, she was been diagnosed with“McCune-Albright syndrome with exophthalmos”.We highlighted the pathogenesis and development of the disease in this rare condition. Conclusion: McCune-Albright syndrome with exophthalmos due to multiple fibrous dysplasia is rare but can be seen in clinical practice.

<p><span>McCune-Albright syndrome (MAS) is an extremely rare disorder that classically affects the bones, skin and endocrine system. Classical features are fibrous dysplasia of bone, skin pigmentation and dysfunction of certain endocrine glands. Diagnosis of MAS is usually established on clinical grounds. Different imaging modalities help to confirm the fibrous dysplasia, among those radio iso-tope bone scan is an excellent tool for early diagnosis and evaluation of bony extension.</span></p><p><span>Bangladesh J.
