title: [Disseminated cutaneous osteomatosis in an infant (author's transl)].
abstract: An infant with disseminated cutaneous osteomatosis as described by Worret and Burgdorf is described. The diagnosis was confirmed by histology which distinguished the bone formation from sub-cutaneous calcification. The prognosis of disseminated cutaneous osteomatosis is guarded because there may be extensive skin involvement and because of the absence of effective treatment.
