Abstract
An 18-year-old girl had a progressive enlarging plate of subcutaneous bone in the scalp since birth. Histologic examination of the lesion sh owed typical osteoma cutis. There was no history of any skin disease p rior to development of the osteoma. Frequently congenital and usually located on the scalp, platelike osteoma is a rare variant of osteoma c utis.
