title: Primary osteoma cutis--multiple café-au-lait spots and woolly hair anomaly.
abstract: An 11-year-old girl with typical features of primary osteoma cutis is reported. She demonstrated multiple areas of subcutaneous, asymptomatic, slow-growing nodules, mostly localized at the extremities. Radiographic evidence of soft tissue calcification and histologic confirmation of ectopic bone formation was obtained. She also showed café-au-lait spots, woolly hair and intrauterine growth deficiency.
