- Abstract
Histopathologically, calvarial lesions are congenital, inflammatory, neoplastic and traumatic origin and these are rarely seen. The calvarial lesions most commonly manifest as palpable mass on physical examination or they are diagnosed incidentally during a radiological test. Defect, lysis and sclerosis in the bony structure are evaluated with radiography and computed tomography (CT) and relationships of the lesions with the soft tissue components and surrounding soft tissue are evaluated with CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and especially with MRI. Based on the radiological findings, benign-malignant discrimination of the calvarial lesions can be made and it may be possible to estimate their histopathological diagnoses.
