Regulation of Cranial Suture Morphogenesis
Cells Tissues Organs, 2004The cranial sutures are the primary sites of bone formation during skull growth. Morphogenesis and phenotypic maintenance of the cranial sutures are regulated by tissue interactions, especially those with the underlying dura mater. Removal of the dura mater in fetuses causes abnormal suture development and premature suture obliteration.

Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the cranial suture biology. The term “craniosynostosis” was first used in 1830 by Otto to describe the premature fusion of cranial sutures. Since this first identification of craniosynostosis as a distinct clinical entity, several theories have been proposed to explain both the pathogenesis of premature ...

Cranial Sutures: A Brief Review
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2008Craniosynostosis, or the premature fusion of one or more cranial sutures, is a relatively common congenital defect that causes a number of morphologic and functional abnormalities. With advances in genetics and molecular biology, research of craniosynostosis has progressed from describing gross abnormalities to understanding the molecular interactions ...

Cranial sutures: a multidisciplinary review
Child's Nervous System, 2013Progress in cranial suture research is shaping our current understanding of the topic; however, emphasis has been placed on individual contributing components rather than the cranial sutural system as a whole. Improving our holistic view helps further guide clinicians who treat cranial sutural abnormalities as well as researchers who study them ...

Traumatic diastasis of cranial sutures
Clinical Radiology, 1961Summary 1. From a study of the normal, it would appear that the anatomical descriptions of “fusion” of the cranial sutures are not associated with an obliteration of these sutures on the radiograph. 2. As long as a suture is visible radiologically, the possibility of its separation by trauma must be accepted. 3. From a series of measurements

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2012
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.

Cranial Suture Evaluation on Routine Pediatric MRI
Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology, 2021The efficacy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for evaluating sutures has not been well studied. CT with 3-dimensional reformats is currently the preferred modality for imaging the major cranial sutures. The role of MRI is primarily is for evaluating the brain for any concurrent malformations. Our objective was to evaluate the reliability of MRI when

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.

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 ...

Studies in Cranial Suture Biology: Part II. Role of the Dura in Cranial Suture Fusion
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1996The biology underlying normal and premature cranial suture fusion remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the dura mater in cranial suture fusion. In the Sprague Dawley rat model, the posterior frontal cranial suture fuses between 10 and 20 days of postnatal life.
