Abstract
Morgagni Stewart Morel (MSM) syndrome is defined as the presence of hyperostosis frontalis interna, variably associated with metabolic, endocrine, and neuropsychiatric disorders. In the literature, the majority of reported cases presented with depression, without any studies focusing on the nature of the link between the two types of disorder. In fact, depression raises the question of whether it is related to this syndrome or to aging, since the prevalence of the MSM syndrome increases with age. In this work, we report a clinical case to discuss the relationship between MSM syndrome and depression in a 67-year-old woman who presented with depression and imagery consistent with MSM syndrome.
