<unk>  is a rare disorder with a genetic background that can cause tissue overgrowth involving all three embryonic lineages. Patients with<unk>  tend to have an increased risk of embryonic tumor development. The clinical and radiographic symptoms of<unk>  are highly variable, as are its orthopedic manifestations. Only a few more than 200 cases have been confirmed worldwide, with estimates that about 120 people are currently alive with the condition. As attenuated forms of the disease may exist, there could be many people with<unk>  who remain undiagnosed. Those most readily diagnosed are also the most severely disfigured. The syndrome is named after the Greek sea-god<unk> , who could change his shape. The condition appears to have been first described in the American medical literature by Samia Temtamy and John Rogers in 1976. American pathologist Michael Cohen described it in 1979.
