The radiograph shows coxa vara with a lucency in the femoral neck, typical of the "ground glass" appearance of fibrous dysplasia. Hyperpigmentantion with a "Coast of Maine" border is indicative of McCune-Albright syndrome, which consists of polyostotic fibrous dyplasia and endocrine disturbances, especially precocious puberty. Nail deformity, patellar instability, cardiac abnormalities, hearing loss, syndactyly, and fibula abnormalities are not associated with this syndrome.
