Abstract

Hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) is a disorder characterized by progressive bone accretion on the internal lamina of the frontal bone. Traditionally, this condition has been included in several syndromes, many of them related with psyquiatric diseases. However, recent publications consider HFI as an independient entity. This article reported a HFI casual finding during the autopsy of a medium age woman with neuropsychiatric symptons.
