The influence of closed sutures on cranial morphology in Apert and Crouzon syndromes: A quantitative analysis. [PDF]
J AnatThis quantitative study identified distinct cranial vault morphologies in Apert and Crouzon syndromes, with a larger anterior fossa in Apert and high variability in Crouzon, reflecting different patterns of suture closure. Abstract Craniosynostoses are congenital conditions characterized by premature suture fusions, altering skull growth and ...

Prevalence and Patterns of Permanent Tooth Agenesis in Patients With Crouzon or Apert Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
Orthod Craniofac ResABSTRACT Crouzon and Apert syndromes are rare syndromic craniosynostoses frequently associated with craniofacial and dental anomalies, including tooth agenesis. Although individual studies have reported tooth agenesis prevalence data in specific populations, no attempts have been made to systematically synthesise these data.

The importance of physical treatment in children underwent craniosynostosis surgery in the first year of life [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2020 Background/Aim. Craniosynostosis is a condition that occurs intrauterine or develops in the infant period, and represents premature fusion of cranial sutures. This fusion of sutures limits the normal cranium development and leads to disorder in the phase

Non-syndromic craniosynostosis: a retrospective analysis [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Plástica, 2020 Introduction: Craniosynostoses are defined as premature fusions of one or more cranial sutures. They can be classified according to the sutures involved, correlated malformations and genetic alterations, and maybe syndromic or not.

Geometric growth of the normal human craniocervical junction from 0 to 18 years old. [PDF]
J AnatThis research investigates the growth dynamics of the craniocervical junction (CCJ) in children. By compiling geometric models of normal skull base growth and analysing closure patterns of synchondroses and sutures, it reveals distinct developmental trajectories and covariations between CCJ bones.
