Abstract
Case report We present a case of solitary myofibromatosis of the skull in a 4-year-old girl. Surgery was performed and the final diagnosis of myofibromatosis was made histopathologically. Discussion Solitary myofibromatosis of the skull is rare and we found approximately 20 reported cases in the English-language literature. We reviewed eight well-described cases. Conclusion Neuroradiologically, common features such as a lytic lesion with a sclerotic rim on roentgenogram and intra-diploic lesion with periosteal new bone formation both in the outer and inner table of the skull on computed assisted tomography are noticed.
