Is brain osteoma serious? This mainly depends on the size and location of the osteoma. If the osteoma is not large, it will show a slight bulge in the bone, and there is no discomfort. You can observe it closely and perform regular CT reexaminations to determine whether the osteoma has increased. If it has not increased, it can be ignored and continued to be observed; if it shows progressive enlargement, surgical resection is necessary to further clarify the pathological diagnosis and determine whether it is an osteoma. If the osteoma is large and causes local discomfort, or if it is located on the forehead and affects the appearance, surgery should be performed to remove the osteoma, and pathological examination should be performed to confirm the diagnosis. The osteoma is benign in nature and has a good prognosis after surgical treatment.
