“…This is considered abnormal compared to modern populations (e.g., Şakir Ekşi et al, 2021 represent 8.7 mm for women). This change may reveal the first phase of hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI), a condition that appears commonly in female individuals during menopause (at century 50 years old) (Cvetković et al, 2020; Figure 4a). This differential diagnosis can be related to a calvaria thickening or HFI.…”

The Longobard necropolis of Castel Trosino dates from the 6th to the 8th century CE. Among the tombs excavated, the skull of an older female shows the first evidence of a cross-shaped bone modification on a living subject. Macroscopic, microscopic, and CT scan analyses revealed signs of at least two sets of scraping marks.Specifically, SEM analysis shows that perimortem bone-scraping traces are present on the skull. Both healed and non-healed defects suggest that the woman has received at least twice intentional bone modifications to address her condition. This is the first evidence of a cross-shaped therapeutic intervention on a living subject.

“…In case of HFI, the study found that the degrees of anisotropy differed between HFI subtypes in males. But there was no significant difference in the microarchitecture of the bone mass be-tween males and females [8]. Fraction analytical findings of HFI bone fragments were categorized into the following types: A, B, C, and D, indicating bone density in an inclining order.…”

Hyperostosis Frontalis Interna and Temporalis Interna: A Rare Case Report

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Hyperostosis is a slow-growing benign bone tumour often seen in the bones of the cranial vault, more commonly found in elderly females. It is an incidental finding noted during radiological examination. The clinical manifestation of such tumour depends on its location inside the cranial cavity: the proximity to the paranasal sinuses, brain tissue, nerves, or blood vessels, etc. Its clinical findings may range from mild obstruction of the paranasal sinuses or blood vessels to severe compression of the surrounding cranial nerves. Here a rare case of hyperostosis of the frontal and temporal bones found during a routine cadaveric dissection in the Department of Anatomy is presented. Causes of the formation of such unusually enlarged bone masses inside the cranial cavity and their clinical presentation are discussed.
