Primary osteoma cutis — multiple café-au-lait spots and woolly hair anomaly

Abstract

An 11-year-old girl with typical features of primary osteoma cutis is reported. She demonstrated multiple areas of subcutaneous, asymptomatic, slow-growing nodules, mostly localized at the extremities. Radiographic evidence of soft tissue calcification and histologic confirmation of ectopic bone formation was obtained. She also showed café-au-lait spots, woolly hair and intrauterine growth deficiency.

Soft-Tissue Osteoma of the Hand: Case Report

“…Previously reported cases predominantly have involved the mouth-usually the posterior aspect of the tongue or the skin. 2,3 Few cases of soft-tissue osteoma in the extremities have been reported. Only 1 case of a soft-tissue osteoma in the hand was published previously by Van Demark et al 4 We report another case of a soft-tissue osteoma in the handand describe the magnetic resonance imaging features of this unusual tumor.…”

“…Elliptical cross section, axial twisting, and occasional trichorrhexis nodosa are evident on microscopy . Associations include Naxos disease , Cavajal syndrome , Noonan syndrome , cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome , keratosis pilaris , ichthyosis , osteoma cutis , and nail dystrophy . The triad of WH, striate palmoplantar keratoderma, and fatal cardiomyopathy should be noted .…”
