Maffucci’s syndrome is a rare non hereditary disorder characterized by multiple enchondromas and haemangiomas. A 12 year old boy presented with a painful swelling at his right hand and deformed left upper limb. On detailed workup, he was found to have multiple enchondromas involving long bones and a single haemangioma. A diagnosis of Maffucci’s syndrome was established. The clinical features and workup of the disease in our patient is reported.
