case_images: At first consultation in October 2019, a sizeable painless tumor of 4 x 5 x 5 cm and two smaller tumors were found on the scalp (Figure 2B). We reconstructed the extensive scalp defect caused by the tumor resection with local fasciomusculocutaneous flaps (Figure 2). The wound was almost healed by March 2021, where only a minor defect was present as seen in Figure 2F.

case_images: A CT scan from July 2020 showed a marked progression of an extracranial tumor compared to a CT cerebrum, which was performed because the proband had cerebral apoplexy in 2012 (Figure 3). Macroscopic examination (Figure 3) showed a skin-covered tumor with craterlike ulceration, measuring 47 mm in height and 50 x 50 mm at the base with the fascia intact.
