Hyperostosis frontalis interna is an unexplained irregular thickening of the inner table of the frontal bone. Hyperostosis frontalis interna was first identified in 1719 by Morgagni as a symptom of a more generalized syndrome characterized by virilism and obesity. Most current studies have shown hyperostosis frontalis interna to be a sex- and age-dependent phenomenon, and females manifest a significantly higher prevalence of hyperostosis frontalis interna than males. In this article, the authors report the clinical case of hyperostosis frontalis interna in a 7-year-old child who had severe traumatic brain injury in the past; review the related literature; and discuss the clinical, radiological, and therapeutic features of this condition.
额骨内板增生症是一种原因不明的额骨内板不规则增厚。额骨内板增生症于1719年由莫尔加尼首次发现，是一种以男性化和肥胖为特征的更广泛综合征的症状。目前大多数研究表明，额骨内板增生症是一种与性别和年龄相关的现象，女性额骨内板增生症的患病率明显高于男性。在本文中，作者报告了一名曾有严重创伤性脑损伤的7岁儿童患额骨内板增生症的临床病例；回顾相关文献；并讨论该病症的临床、放射学和治疗特征。
