Advanced parental age: Is it contributing to an increased incidence of non-syndromic craniosynostosis? A review of case-control studies

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2021
Background: Craniosynostosis (CS) is a congenital birth defect characterized by the premature fusion of one or several calvarial suture(s). CS could lead to serious complications, such as intracranial hypertension and neurodevelopmental impairment. There

The Swedish National Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE): Coexisting systemic disorders 2007–2023

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To analyse the frequency and type of coexisting systemic disorders in children operated on for cataract in Sweden. Methods Data were retrieved from the Swedish National Pediatric Cataract Register (PECARE) for children operated between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2023 (n = 975), including follow‐ups at age 1, 2, 5 and 10 ...

The utility of molecular genetic techniques in craniosynostosis cases associated with intellectual disability

Romanian Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2018
Molecular genetic testing in craniosynostosis leads to the detection of the mutations in the genes encoding fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR), providing information about the etiology of the genetic disorder.

The Influence of Perioperative Antibiotic Prophylaxis on Wound Infection and on the Colonization of Wound Drains in Patients After Correction of Craniosynostosis

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Objective: Evidence for the duration of perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis (PAP) after the correction of craniosynostosis in children is scarce. We evaluated the necessary duration of PAP to ensure a minimal rate of postoperative wound infections ...

Pathways to enhancing prenatal diagnosis of skeletal dysplasias

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Skeletal dysplasias are a group of Mendelian disorders that variably alter the development of the musculoskeletal system and phenotypically range from mild short stature syndromes to severe perinatal or neonatal morbidity. Prenatal diagnosis of these conditions can be challenging due to the lack of precision with ultrasound imaging compared to

Computed tomography findings of Crouzon syndrome: A case report

Radiology Case Reports, 2022
Crouzon syndrome is a genetic condition characterized by a premature fusion of skull sutures resulting in head and facial deformities. Crouzon syndrome is usually suspected at birth through physical examination or in the antenatal period via ...

DREAMER: Rapid and Simultaneous Multiple Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Solid and Soft Tissue

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 3, Page 1513-1527, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Pediatric craniofacial imaging may involve examination of both the skull and brain tissues via CT and MRI, respectively. DREAMER (Dual Repetition and Echo Acquisition with Multi‐contrast Encoding and Reconstruction) simultaneously acquires solid‐ and soft‐tissue images, potentially providing a rapid, high‐resolution, and radiation‐free

Genetic bases of craniosynostoses: An update

Neurochirurgie, 2019
Craniosynostosis (CS) is defined as the premature fusion of cranial sutures, leading to an abnormal skull shape. The overall incidence is between 1: 2,000 and 1: 3,000 live births. Genetic causes are found in 20% of cases. CS can be isolated (non-syndromic CS/NSCS) or they can be part of multiple congenital abnormalities syndromes (syndromic CS/SCS). A
