description Unexpected bone lesions of the skull present a common dilemma, where radiological appearance and patient’s clinical background are crucial to avoid misdiagnosis. Enostosis are benign sclerotic bone lesions; its aetiology is still unknown and its management is usually conservative, with good prognosis. Most of these lesions are asymptomatic and neurological involvement is rare. We present the first report of enostosis-related epilepsy.
