European Journal of Human Genetics, 2011 Craniosynostosis, defined as the premature fusion of the cranial sutures, presents many challenges in classification and treatment. At least 20% of cases are caused by specific single gene mutations or chromosome abnormalities. This article maps out approaches to clinical assessment of a child presenting with an unusual head shape, and illustrates how ...

Surgical treatment and muscle protein analysis of V-pattern exotropia in craniosynostosis
Scientific Reports, 2022 The purpose of this study was to compare the differences of V-pattern exotropia in craniosynostosis and normal children. 39 children were included in this study, 19 craniosynostosis and 20 children in control group.

High risk factors for craniosynostosis during pregnancy: A case-control study
European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology: X, 2022 Background: Craniosynostosis is a birth defect involving premature cranial sutures’ fusion with an increasing prevalence and unknown underlying causes in nearly 80% of cases.

Prevalence of Cardiac Anomalies in Children with Syndromic and Non-syndromic Craniosynostosis [PDF]
International Clinical Neuroscience Journal, 2022 Background: Craniosynostosis mostly occurs as a single abnormality; however, it may rarely occur concomitantly with other congenital abnormalities known as syndromic craniosynostosis.

A multi-stem cell basis for craniosynostosis and calvarial mineralization
Nature, 2021 The calvarial stem cell niche is populated by a cathepsin K-expressing cell lineage and a newly identified discoidin domain-containing receptor 2-expressing lineage, both of which are required for proper calvarial mineralization.

BMPR1A maintains skeletal stem cell stemness in craniofacial development and craniosynostosis
Science Translational Medicine, 2021 Stemness of skeletal stem cells in the calvarium is maintained by BMPR1A; disruption depletes stem cells and causes cranial bone fusion. Signaling and suture stem cells Suture stem cells give rise to craniofacial bone, and premature suture closure ...

Genetic influence on neurodevelopment in non-syndromic craniosynostosis
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2022 Background: Nonsyndromic craniosynostosis is one of the most common anomalies treated by craniofacial surgeons. Despite optimal surgical management, nearly half of affected children have subtle neurocognitive deficits. Whereas timing and type of surgical
