Abstract Pachydermoperiostosis (PDP) is the primary form of hypertrophic osteoarthropathy which accounts for 5% of all cases of the disorder. It is a rare hereditary disorder that is associated with digital clubbing, polyarthritis, cutis verticis gyrata, Seborrhea, eyelid ptosis, and hyperhidrosis. In this case report, we discussed a case of an incomplete form of primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy characterised by evidence of bone abnormalities without pachydermia. Keywords: Pachydermoperiostosis, hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, periostosis.

Cutis Verticis Gyrata

Cutis verticis gyrata is a rare condition characterized by excessive growth of skin of the scalp, resulting in furrows and folds similar to gyri of the cortex of brain. It can be classified into two forms: primary (essential and non-essential) and secondary. We report a case of 18-year-old male patient with primary essential cutis verticis gyrata with rugosities over forehead and scalp and coarse facial features.

The earliest case of cutis verticis gyrata reported in the literature appears to have been that of Robert (1) in 1843. The following instances were observed by Auvert (2) in 1854 and subsequent cases were noted by Poggi (3) in 1884 and Lombroso (4) in 1890. In 1893, McDowall (5) and Cowan (6) recorded the first occurrence of this abnormal scalp development in association with a microcephalic mental defective, and since that case report several other authors such as Möller (7) in 1903 and Judassohn (8) in 1906, described similar instances. In 1907, Unna (9) presented three cases and coined the name cutis verticis gyrata. It is also known under additional terms such as “corrugated skin”, “bulldog scalp” and “pachydermie occipitale vorticillée”.

Scalp Skin

Cutis verticis gyrata (CVG) is characterized by extensive formation of scalp skin that mirrors the folds of the cerebral gyri. Giant CVG secondary to cerebriform intradermal nevus (CIN) has been rarely reported, and its management mainly involves surgical excision. In certain cases of giant CVG, however, surgical excision is dilemmatic. This case report describes a giant CVG secondary to CIN that was successfully managed with scalp expansion and surgical excision. Previously published studies are also reviewed.

Scalp Skin

Cutis verticis gyrata (CVG) is a rare condition of the scalp characterized by convoluted folds and furrows produced by the excessive growth of the skin of the scalp and resembling the cerebral gyri. CVG can be identified as primary—essential or nonessential—or secondary. Herein, we report the case of a 20-year-old female with primary essential CVG, who presented herself with thickened and convoluted skin folds over the vertex and parietal region of the scalp persistent for one year prior without other symptoms. CVG is a rare congenital or acquired disease distinguished by redundancy of the scalp skin that resembles the cerebral gyri. The management of primary essential CVG can be symptomatic or surgical depending on the patient’s aesthetic expectations.

The Brain

Cerebriform intradermal nevus is a rare disorder characterised by development of folds and furrows on the scalp, giving it a convoluted appearance resembling surface of the brain. There are two main forms of CVG, primary and secondary. Secondary form may appear at any age and is usually secondary to causes such as tumors, Cerebriform intradermal nevus (CIN), neurofibromas or amyloidosis. There is high risk of development of malignant melanoma in patients of CIN presenting as CVG. Hence early diagnosis and treatment is important.
