Abstract:
A 30-year-old female presented with multiple,
asymptomatic swellings over the scalp [Figure 1] since
the past 1 year. Initially, patient noticed a small pea-sized
swelling over the vertex, which gradually increased in size and
similar lesions developed over different areas of the scalp.
The lesions were mostly asymptomatic except for occasional
pain due to trauma induced by combing. There was no
history of preceding trauma and none of the other family
members had a similar complaint. Clinical examination
revealed eight firm, well-defined swellings located discretely
over the vertex, parietal, and occipital regions of the scalp.
