[Osseous anomalies of centrofacial lentiginosis (39 cases) (author's transl)].
The authors present the results of an investigation on 39 cases of centrofacial lentiginosis. Eleven patients urged to be examined because of their alarming health condition, and 28 cases were found out following an inquiry within some collectivities. With centrofacial lentiginosis the cutaneous hereditary polydysplasia (characterized by typical lentigines), the dysraphic state and neuro-psychic troubles are usual and awaken the interest of the radiologist due to the frequency of various dysmorphoses, growth disturbances and a trend for arthrosis. The radiologist has to pay a due attention to these aspects representing as many manifestations of a disease of a hereditary-family type since a possible centrofacial lentiginosis also means a possible disabling potential associated with education and vocational training problems.
