Protrusion of the bones of the skull, typically the forehead
Skull bossing; in this case frontal bossing presents as a protuberance of the frontal bones and an enlarged brow ridge caused by increased growth hormone production associated with acromegaly.
Skull bossing is a descriptive term in medical physical examination indicating a protuberance of the skull, most often in the frontal bones of the forehead ("frontal bossing"). Although prominence of the skull bones may be normal, skull bossing may be associated with certain medical conditions,[1] including nutritional, metabolic, hormonal, and hematologic disorders.
