Preservation versus Structural Cranioplasty: A New Concept for Craniosynostosis Treatment [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Plastic Surgery
Craniosynostosis, a condition characterized by the premature closure of one or more cranial sutures, can be classified based on the affected suture, the number of sutures involved, or the presence of syndromic features.

Descriptive Anatomy and Three-Dimensional Reconstruction of the Skull of the Early Tetrapod Acanthostega gunnari Jarvik, 1952 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The early tetrapod Acanthostega gunnari is an iconic fossil taxon exhibiting skeletal morphology reflecting the transition of vertebrates from water onto land. Computed tomography data of two Acanthostega skulls was segmented using visualization software

A suture in time: The ontogeny of cranial suture morphology in mammals. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Anat
AbstractSuture shape and complexity are thought to influence skull function in mammals, supporting the evolution of ecological and morphological diversity. These aspects of suture morphology are seldom studied in a comparative context, especially relative to the multitude of comparative studies of cranial shape.

The Intertwined Evolution and Development of Sutures and Cranial Morphology

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Phenotypic variation across mammals is extensive and reflects their ecological diversification into a remarkable range of habitats on every continent and in every ocean. The skull performs many functions to enable each species to thrive within its unique

Age Estimation in Han Adults by Thin-Layer CT Scan of Cranial Sutures [PDF]

open access: yesFayixue Zazhi, 2020
 Objective To explore the value of degree of cranial suture closure in forensic adult age estimation by thin-layer CT scan and establish an adult age estimation model of the Han nationality.

Flexure of cranial sutures [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 1971
Beam samples containing cranial sutures were prepared from embalmed and unem- balmed cranial bone and were tested to determine their flexural stiffness and strength. With the aid of layered beam theory, the flexural stiffnesses of beams containing cranial sutures were compared to hypothetical layered cranial bone beams which did not contain sutures ...

Cranial suture headache: An extracranial head pain syndrome originating in the cranial sutures of the skull

open access: yesCephalalgia Reports, 2021
Objective: To define a new type of head pain syndrome termed “cranial suture headache” which is a localized headache originating along the cranial suture lines of the skull. Background: Well localized headaches maybe extracranial in origin. As trigeminal

Macroscopic Cranial Suture Closure in An Adult Population: Is It Reliable for Estimating Age?

open access: yesArab Journal of Forensic Sciences & Forensic Medicine, 2021
Age estimation is a key factor for the estimation of true sketch of an individual. Generally speaking, assessment of the age of a person either alive or dead is very important in medicolegal and forensic scenarios.

Craniofacial sutures: Signaling centres integrating mechanosensation, cell signaling, and cell differentiation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2022
Cranial sutures are dynamic structures in which stem cell biology, bone formation, and mechanical forces interface, influencing the shape of the skull throughout development and beyond.

Models of Cranial Suture Biology [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2012
Craniosynostosis is a common congenital defect caused by premature fusion of cranial sutures. The severe morphologic abnormalities and cognitive deficits resulting from craniosynostosis and the potential morbidity of surgical correction espouse the need for a deeper understanding of the complex etiology for this condition. Work in animal models for the
