Using novel subcision technique for the treatment of primary essential cutis verticis gyrata.
International Journal of Dermatology 2009 March
BACKGROUND: Primary essential cutis verticis gyrata (CVG) is characterized by folds and furrows of the scalp, resembling the convoluted appearance of the brain, and is not associated with other abnormalities. Most patients with CVG are treated with surgical methods, such as scalp reduction; however, surgery may not be suitable for patients in whom the area involved is large.
METHODS: A 37-year-old man with primary essential CVG was treated with a scalp subcision technique under local anesthesia.
RESULTS: A successful cosmetic improvement was obtained.
CONCLUSIONS: The scalp subcision technique is a safe procedure and should be a treatment option for primary CVG.
