ABSTRACT

Cutis verticis gyrata (CVG) is a rare condition characterized by excessive proliferation of subcutaneous tissue and hypertrophy of the scalp that produces folds and grooves resembling brain gyri. The primary variant of CVG is characterized by findings of normal skin in the histopathological study and its essential form is rare. We present two cases of male patients with essential primary cutis verticis gyrata of 32 and 27 years old respectively; the main concern of both patients was the appearance of the scalp and foul odor. According to the literature review, these are the first two cases reported in Mexican population.
