ABSTRACT

Introduction: Gorham-Stout disease is uncommon, characterized by the proliferation of endothelium-lined vessels and progressive bone destruction with spontaneous and progressive resorption. Case report: 39-year-old male with the evolution of pain in both coxofemoral joints, which increased over two years, presenting shortening of the right pelvic extremity, making ambulation impossible. The hip tomography showed disappearance of the right femoral head and neck and elevation of the greater trochanter due to dislocation, severe coxarthrosis was found in the left hip. Gorham-Stout syndrome was diagnosed and confirmed by biopsy.
