  • Title: Bilateral parieto-occipital dermoid sinuses in a Rottweiler.
    Author: Bornard N, Pin D, Carozzo C.
    Journal: J Small Anim Pract; 2007 Feb; 48(2):107-10. PubMed ID: 17286665.
    Abstract:
    Bilateral dermoid sinuses were identified on the parieto-occipital region of a Rottweiler. Diagnosis was confirmed by histological examination after successful complete surgical resection. The dermoid sinuses were independent with separate tracts. This unusual parasagittal location can be explained by craniofacial development: dermoid sinuses on the head could occur along the lines of embryological fusion and not only in the sagittal plane. A hypothesis of an origin at the level of the suture between the parietal and interparietal bones is possible in this case.
