Most treatments are symptomatic and supportive.
Surgery may be required to relieve pain, improve movement, restore normal circulation, or for cosmetic reasons.

Monitoring the size of affected bones by annual scans to screen for malignant degeneration is sometimes recommended. In that condition surgery is needed.

Rapid growth and increased pain are signs of a possible malignant change.

Genetic counseling is recommended for affected individuals and their families.
