Two cases of thickening of the internal tables of the frontal bones (hyperostosis frontalis interna, (HFI)) have been examined. These were two female skeletons from the 16th century Dominican Church in Raciborz (Southwest Poland). The similarity of their morphological and metrical traits indicates that they could be related, and suggests that HFI is likely to have a genetic base. These two skeletons are the subject of an analysis which may possibly throw some new light on the controversial and continually disputed nature of this illness.
对两例额骨内板增厚(额骨内板增生症,HFI)的病例进行了检查。这是来自波兰西南部拉齐布日16世纪多米尼加教堂的两具女性骨架。它们在形态和测量特征上的相似性表明它们可能存在亲属关系,并提示额骨内板增生症可能具有遗传基础。这两具骨架是一项分析的对象,该分析可能会为这种疾病存在争议且持续受到争论的性质带来一些新的启示。
