Cranial fasciitis is a rare reactive, non-tumoral lesion (pseudosarcoma) that occurs
mostly in children below 6 years, with a propensity for the cranium. This type of tumor has
been reported to arise from the deep fascia, periosteum or from the fibrous layers that cover
fontanelles and sutures. The lesion is usually solitary, firm and painless. Grossly, it is usually
unencapsulated but well circumscribed. To our knowledge, only 51 cases have been reported
in the literature. Herein, we present the clinical, pathological, and radiological findings of
a female infant with cranial fasciitis of the skull, and review the literature. |
