Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Skin disorders can manifest with associated bony changes or calcification abnormalities.
  • Radiographic imaging plays a crucial role in detecting these skeletal manifestations.
  • Understanding these associations aids in comprehensive diagnosis and patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and categorize skin disorders associated with radiographic bony changes or calcification abnormalities.
  • To provide a comprehensive overview of these conditions for clinicians and researchers.
  • To discuss categories 3 through 8 of these disorders in this second part of the review.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of literature on skin disorders with associated osseous findings.
  • Classification of disorders into eight distinct categories based on etiology and presentation.
  • Detailed discussion of specific conditions within each category, focusing on radiographic findings.

Main Results:

  • Identified eight categories of skin disorders with associated bony changes or calcification abnormalities.
  • Categories include inherited diseases, congenital disorders, inflammatory conditions, infections, neoplasias, drug/environment-induced conditions, calcinosis cutis, and osteoma cutis.
  • This part of the review focuses on inflammatory conditions through osteoma cutis.

Conclusions:

  • Radiographs are valuable tools for detecting bony changes in various skin disorders.
  • A systematic categorization aids in understanding the spectrum of these associated conditions.
  • This review provides essential information for diagnosing and managing patients with complex dermatologic and skeletal manifestations.
