Abstract
Osteoma Cutis is a rarely seen benign disease. Osteoma cutis (OC) is an abnormal development of bone within tegumentary tissue. OC is a benign and asymptomatic lesion, characterized by presence of ectopic osseous lamellae with osteoblastic cells in dermis and hypodermis. The case described in this report regards a healthy 57-years-old man with a neoformation on left abdominal wall, without pathologic anamnestic history.
