Abstract

Introduction: Hyperostosis frontalis interna (HFI) is a common and often incidental finding seen on imaging. There is a significant paucity of radiology literature, particularly regarding the MRI imaging appearance of HFI.

Case presentation: We reported two cases of HFI on MRI, which showed focal enhancement. These were stable on long-term follow-up studies and thought to be most consistent with benign enhancement.

Conclusion: Further studies are needed to elucidate the underlying pathogenesis; however, it is important to be aware that regions of HFI may demonstrate variable enhancement and are sometimes mistaken for osseous metastatic disease.

额肌肥厚症（HFI）的 MRI 影像学表现：灶性良性增强病例报告。

简介额肌间过度增生症（HFI）是一种常见的、经常在影像学检查中偶然发现的疾病。放射学文献，尤其是有关 HFI 的 MRI 影像学表现的文献非常缺乏：我们报告了两例核磁共振成像显示局灶性强化的 HFI 病例。这些病例在长期随访研究中表现稳定，被认为最符合良性强化：结论：需要进一步研究以阐明潜在的发病机制；然而，重要的是要注意 HFI 区域可能会显示不同程度的强化，有时会被误认为是骨转移性疾病。
