Abstract

The Morgagni-Stewart-Morel syndrome (frontal hyperostosis syndrome, metabolic craniopathy) according to the classical description includes a triad of symptoms: thickening of the internal plate of the frontal bone, obesity and virilism.
In 1762, Morgagni, opening the corpse of a 40-year-old woman, established a thickening of the inner plate of the frontal bone, and at the same time excessive obesity and male-type hairiness. He considered these signs not coexisting, but interconnected and described this observation.
