One-sided brain over the head: Cutis verticis gyrata

Abstract

Cutis verticis gyrata (CVG) is a rare disease manifesting as convoluted folds and furrows, resembling sulci and gyri formed from thickened skin of the scalp. It can be congenital or acquired and primary or secondary. We report a rare case of 28-year-old male with a localized variant of primary essential CVG.
