Acromegaly is a rare systemic syndrome induced by the overproduction of growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor type one (IGF1). It is responsible for changes in the skeletal and soft tissue systems and it almost always occurs because of a pituitary adenoma. Amongst the skin complications related to acromegaly, cutis verticis gyrate (CVG) is occasionally found. It is a skin condition characterized by excessive growth of the skin of the scalp, resulting in furrows and folds. Only a few cases of this uncommon association have been reported in the literature. The present clinical case illustrates typical CVG associated with acromegaly. Imaging revealed a pituitary macroadenoma lesion and hormonal evaluation revealed elevated IGF1 and hypopituitarism. The patient underwent a transsphenoidal resection of the pituitary adenoma and the histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis. The diagnosis of CVG is clinical, so radiologic assessments are generally not necessary. The management of acromegaly associated with CVG depends on controlling the serum levels of GH and IGF1. In some cases, specific injections or surgery can be used to minimize CVG.
