Case History A 20‐year‐old female patient who presented with skin lesions on her head was admitted to our hospital on September 3, 2003. A hard, painless, small nodule had been present on her head since birth. The flesh‐colored nodule was covered with hair. It had gradually enlarged to such an extent that creases and hollows appeared. No treatment was given for this painless condition. In the past 5 years, the lesion enlarged so quickly that almost the patient's entire crown and occipital area were involved. However, her intelligence was normal, and she lacked any history of external injury, chronic eczema, pyoderma, psoriasis, endocrine diseases, or other tumors. The patient was the product of a nonconsanguineous marriage, being born when her mother was 24. The mother had no history exposure to drugs, chemical materials, or radiation during her pregnancy and lactation. There was no similar family history of cutis verticis gyrata. In July 2001, the patient was first admitted to our hospital. Clinical Examination The patient was healthy and well developed. The size of her head was normal, and the skin of the face, forehead, hands, and feet was of normal thickness. There were no painful or swollen bones
