Progressive Cranial Suture Stenosis in Craniosynostosis
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1991Despite the growing literature on various types of single suture craniosynostosis, very little information is available on the progression of the synostotic process. This article reports on a group of patients who presented with fusion of a single suture that progressed over the years to involve multiple sutures.

Mechanical properties of cranial sutures
Journal of Biomechanics, 1990Many bones in mammalian skulls are linked together by cranial sutures, connective tissue joints that are morphologically variable and show different levels of interdigitation among and within species. The goal of this investigation was to determine whether sections of skull with cranial sutures have different mechanical properties than adjacent ...

Fractal Dimensions of Cranial Sutures and Waveforms
Cells Tissues Organs, 1992Two quite different shapes of cranial sutures ostensibly yield fractal dimensions. The rare, intricate sutures yield the more valid fractal dimensions because self-similar scaling provides a double-log plot of negative slope. These sutures are fractals over a range of several r values.

Mechanisms of premature closure of cranial sutures
Child's Nervous System, 1999Craniosynostosis is defined as premature closure of the sutures of the skull, resulting in cranial deformity. Since Virchow's original paper describing the relationship between premature suture closure and skull morphology, we have learned much about the underlying mechanisms and consequences of premature suture closure.

Craniosynostosis describes the premature pathologic partial or complete fusion of 1 or more of the cranial sutures. Over the past few decades, research on craniosynostosis has progressed from gross description of deformities to an understanding of some of the molecular etiologies behind premature suture fusion.

Studies in Cranial Suture Biology: Regional Dura Mater Determines in Vitro Cranial Suture Fusion
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1997Craniosynostosis results in alterations in craniofacial growth that create cosmetic abnormalities and functional deficits, yet the biology underlying cranial suture fusion remains unknown. The purpose of the present study was to show that regional dura mater can induce suture fusion while in an organ culture system in cranial sutures programmed to ...

Effect of Cranial Suture Autotransplantation From Metopic to Coronal Suture
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 1998The aim of this study was to determine the outcome of autotransplanting part of the metopic suture to a defect in the coronal suture in a pig model and to explore further the concept of functioning and nonfunctioning recipient sites. The authors harvested 15-mm x 10-mm bone grafts, incorporating a part of the metopic suture, in 10 Yorkshire pigs under ...

Squamosal suture synostosis has received little attention, potentially due to its rare nature. The authors present here a clinical report of isolated unilateral squamosal suture synostosis and a literature review, which produced 6 articles describing 33 patients of squamosal synostosis.Of the reported patients, 15 were associated with a craniofacial ...

Cranial sutures are not of great concern to the modern neurosurgeon, except when abnormalities interfere with the skull's shape and its ability to expand during childhood. It is a commonplace that a craniotomy may cross a variety of sutures without providing any extra difficulty to the operator. The sagittal suture does remain useful as a definition of

Sonography of normal cranial sutures.
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1997The purpose of this study was to describe the normal sonographic appearance and measurement of normal major cranial sutures in neonates and infants.High-resolution sonograms of sagittal, coronal, and lambdoid sutures were obtained for two autopsy specimens and correlated with histologic sections obtained at identical locations.
