Abstract
|
|
|
The authors report a case of idiopathic massive osteolysis of the parietal bone. A 37-year-old male was admitted with the
complaints of headache. The depression of the skull was palpable. Plain skull X-ray and brain computed tomography(CT)
revealed a diffuse massive osteolytic lesion at the left parietal bone without any evidence of new bone formation or skull
tumor. Cranioplasty was performed and through biopsy idiopathic massive oeteolysis was confirmed. The authors report
this case with the literature review, and discuss clinical, radiological features, and management methods of this rare case.
