Homozygous Achondroplasia With Long‐Term Survival: Growth Patterns, Medical Interventions, and Practice Implications

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Homozygous achondroplasia is widely considered perinatal lethal by the medical community. In this case series, we report two children from a single family with longer‐term survival. One child lived for 17 months and the other was 60 months at the time of publication.

Crouzon Syndrome with Ocular Abnormalities: A Case Report [PDF]

Indian Journal of Neonatal Medicine and Research, 2016
Crouzon syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by premature closure of cranial sutures, exophthalmos, beak-like nose and mid facial hypoplasia. It was initially described as hereditary syndrome of craniofacial synostosis.

Description of the skull, braincase, and dentition of Moschognathus whaitsi (Dinocephalia, Tapinocephalia), and its palaeobiological and behavioral implications

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A subadult Moschognathus whaitsi from the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa, was scanned using synchrotron radiation X‐ray computed tomography (SRXCT). Its subadult state allowed the cranial bones and teeth to be identified and individually reconstructed in 3D.

Obliteration study of lambdatic and obelionic region sutures in ruminant, carnivores and hominids [PDF]

, 2014
The morphology of Orce cranial fragment VM-0 is contrasted with the frontoparietal region in artiodactyls, and the obelionic region in carnivores and primates including hominids.

Case report: targeted whole exome sequencing enables the first prenatal diagnosis of the lethal skeletal dysplasia Osteocraniostenosis. [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND: Osteocraniostenosis (OCS) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by premature closure of cranial sutures, gracile bones and perinatal lethality. Previously, diagnosis has only been possible postnatally on clinical and radiological features.

Inside a duck‐billed dinosaur: Vertebral bone microstructure of Huallasaurus (Hadrosauridae), Upper Cretaceous of Patagonia

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dinosaurs evolved a unique respiratory system with air sacs that contributed to their evolutionary success. Postcranial skeletal pneumaticity (PSP) has been used to infer the presence of air sac systems in some fossil archosaurs. While unambiguous evidence of PSP is well documented in pterosaurs and post‐Carnian saurischians, it remains absent

Cranial Sutures as a Cause of Osseointegration Failure in Bone-Anchored Implants: Case Reports

B-ENT
This report discusses 2 clinical cases where the failure of osseointegration in bone-anchored implants may be associated with their placement directly in cranial sutures.

Cranial sutures as intramembranous bone growth sites [PDF]

Developmental Dynamics, 2000
Intramembranous bone growth is achieved through bone formation within a periosteum or by bone formation at sutures. Sutures are formed during embryonic development at the sites of approximation of the membranous bones of the craniofacial skeleton. They serve as the major sites of bone expansion during postnatal craniofacial growth.

Ontogenetic changes and sexual dimorphism in the cranium and mandible of the Atlantic walrus (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus L.)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Walruses have been an important subsistence and cultural resource for humans and have been exploited for millennia across their distribution. This exploitation has contributed to severe declines in several populations and local extirpations.

Delayed Postnatal Synostosis without Spheno-occipital Synchondrosis Fusion: A Curious Case of Apert Syndrome

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Summary:. Apert syndrome classically presents with craniosynostosis at birth, most commonly of the bilateral coronal sutures, which may lead to cephalocranial disproportion and elevated intracranial pressure, the latter of which is associated with optic ...
