Lipedematous scalp is characterized by increased subcutaneous thickness of the scalp without any hair change. A 50-year-old female presented with thickening of the scalp without alopecia. She had no disorder other than hypertension. Monthly sonographic measurements without any treatment showed a resolution tendency in some areas and an increased thickness in others. We discuss the characteristics of this rare and possibly underestimated entity, including differential diagnoses.
脂肿性头皮的特征是头皮皮下厚度增加而毛发无任何改变。一名50岁女性表现为头皮增厚但无脱发。除高血压外，她没有其他疾病。未经任何治疗的每月超声测量显示，一些区域有消退趋势，而另一些区域厚度增加。我们讨论了这种罕见且可能被低估的病症的特征，包括鉴别诊断。
