Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by benign bone tumors. In this report, we describe two unrelated Chinese families with HME. Linkage analysis and mutation detection was performed. Clinical analysis was also performed for some affected individual in both families. Linkage with the EXT2 was established in both families. A novel mutation, c505 G > T, was identified in both families. Further allelic heterogeneity of EXT2 was demonstrated by the intrafamilial and interfamilial variability in clinical phenotype.
