Caffey's disease is a rare syndrome, usually self-limiting, affecting newborn and young infants. On radiological exams, the cortical hyperostosis is always present, associated or not to soft tissue swelling. Other radiographic presentations are described as lytic areas.
This article has the objective to relate computed tomography (CT) findings of Caffey's disease, where lytic lesion on mandibular angle was the principal radiological manifestation.
Three-dimensional reconstructions were performed to demonstrate the initial aspect and the healing process.
This report shows unusual radiological characteristics of Caffey's disease on CT and its progressive resolution.
卡菲病是一种罕见综合征,通常为自限性,影响新生儿和幼儿。在放射学检查中,皮质骨增生总是存在,可伴有或不伴有软组织肿胀。其他影像学表现被描述为溶骨性区域。
本文旨在阐述卡菲病的计算机断层扫描(CT)表现,其中下颌角溶骨性病变是主要的放射学表现。
进行三维重建以展示初始情况和愈合过程。
本报告显示了卡菲病在CT上不寻常的放射学特征及其逐渐消退的过程。
