Primary Essential Cutis Verticis Gyrata: Case Report
Journal Title: Medical Journal of Clinical Trials & Case Studies - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 5
Abstract
Cutis verticis gyrata is a scalp condition where there are convoluted folds that resemble the surface of the cerebral cortex. It is classified by the underlying etiology, as primary essential, primary non-essential and secondary. The primary nonessential type is associated with neuropsychiatric disorder, whereas the primary essential form does not present any other associated abnormalities. We present a rare case of a 25 year-old female patient with primary essential cutis verticis gyrata.
