Abstract
Acalvaria is a rare and lethal congenital malformation characterized by the absence of the cranial vault bones, dura mater and associated muscles with complete cranial content. We report a 5-year-old Malian girl seen at 20 months old for facial dysmorphia, hemiparesis, and a cranial bone defect that improved progressively.
