Abstract
- Cranial fasciitis is a rare fibroblastic tumor which shows a predilection for the scalp and skull of youngchil-dren. Histologically, cranial fasciitis is identical to nodular fasciitis which is typically found in theextremities of adults, though is unique in that it may present as an osteolytic lesion of the skull. We report acase of cranial fasciitis in a 20-month-old girl, describing the ultrasonography, CT and MRI findings.
