    Abstract Background: Cutaneous Central Follicular Lymphoma (CCFL) is a type B cutaneous lymphoma with a usually indolent course. Scalp localization of CCFL is extremely rare, we report a new case mimicking an epidural hematoma, and showing a rapid progression with aggressive infiltration of skin, calvaria, dura and brain parenchyma.
    Case report: A 58-year-old patient with an unlabeled polymalformative syndrome was admitted to the Emergency department following a head injury secondary to a self-resolving tonic-clonic epileptic seizure. The initial CT-scan was interpreted as a minor subcutaneous and epidural hematoma initially deemed for conservative management. Within 4 days, the patient showed a progressive neurological deterioration culminating into a stuporous status which prompted a constrast-enhanced brain MRI. The scan revealed a multilayered solid lesion, extending from the subgaleal compartment to the subdural space, threatening the integrity of overlying skin and causing infiltration of the brain parenchyma. Following emergency neurosurgical excision a definitive histology diagnosis of central follicular lymphoma was made. A focused chemotherapy with high-dose Methotrexate with R-CHOP protocol led to disease control until the latest follow up at 2 years.
    Conclusion: To our knowledge, this case represents the first CCFL invading the brain parenchyma and the second extending to the dura. Although such tumor is usually indolent the aggressive behavior herein reported extend the differential diagnosis to high-grade meningiomas, sarcomas, and metastases. Prognostication and appropriate adjuvant treatment require prompt surgical excision and histological confirmation.

    Abstract Context: The well-known effects of ionizing radiation on brain cells have been a major driving force toward the use of non-ionizing methods of imaging in both elective and emergency settings. Pediatric neurosurgery has certainly leveraged on this shift in clinical practice, however patients with craniofacial disorders could not fully benefit from the adoption of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) because computed tomography (CT) scans still retain superior imaging power on bone tissue.
    Aims: To explore the knowledge available on the use of MRI as surrogate for CT scan in the assessment of craniosynostosis.
    Settings and design: A scoping review was designed to identify landmark studies and ongoing clinical trials exploring the accuracy of MRI-based bone imaging in the preoperative planning of pediatric patients with craniosynostosis.
    Materials and methods: A total of 492 records were screened from Pubmed, Ovid Medline, Scopus, and Cochrane Library databases; while 55 records were retrieved from ClinicalTrials.gov register. Only clinical studies revolving around the use of Gradient Echo Black-Bone (BB) and Zero Time Echo (ZTE) MRI sequences for the preoperative planning of pediatric craniosynostosis were retained for inclusion.
    Results and conclusions: This review identified only five clinical studies reporting a high accuracy of MRI-based 3D bone reconstruction in 47 pediatric candidates to surgical correction of craniosynostosis. Although promising, limited evidence (Level IV) exist that BB and ZTE MRI could help in the surgical planning for craniosynostosis management. The results of two ongoing randomized clinical trials, which are actively enrolling patients, will hopefully help answering this research question.
