Avoiding the Sequela Associated With Deformational Plagiocephaly
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2003Over the last decade, infants with deformities in the craniofacial skeleton have been seen at our craniofacial center, and similar observations have been noted in infants seen for evaluation and management after birth, where there are not any evident pathological findings such as craniosynostosis or another known genetic disorder.

Neurodevelopmental Delays in Children with Deformational Plagiocephaly
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2006The purpose of this study was to determine whether, in fact, infants with deformational plagiocephaly, or plagiocephaly without synostosis, demonstrated cognitive and psychomotor developmental delays when compared with a standardized population. Through this study, we chose to expand upon our earlier findings from 2001 on patients with deformational ...

Coincident Metopic Synostosis and Deformational Plagiocephaly
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 1999A male infant is described in whom coincident pathologies of metopic synostosis and deformational plagiocephaly were observed. The role in causation of localized pressure (in particular, extreme constraint) is addressed.

In Search of Causative Factors of Deformational Plagiocephaly
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2004This is a preliminary study of 37 infants with deformational plagiocephaly. In this first effort to create a profile of factors that may contribute to the onset and progress of developmental plagiocephaly, parents were interviewed concerning selected practices before and immediately after the birth of their infants. Results of the study do not reveal a

Risk Factors Associated With Deformational Plagiocephaly
Pediatrics, 2009OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to statistically evaluate the independent and interacting effects of biological and environmental risk factors that influence lateralization of deformational plagiocephaly (DP) in an attempt to provide future guidance for clinical treatment.METHODS: A database of >20000 children treated for DP was examined by ...

Ocular Manifestations of Deformational Frontal Plagiocephaly
Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 1993ABSTRACT Frontal plagiocephaly can be caused by two mechanisms: craniosynostosis and external deformational pressure. Synostotic plagiocephaly is known to be associated with vertical strabismus and contralateral head tilt. Thirteen patients with deformational frontal plagiocephaly were examined to evaluate head position, ocular motility, and ...

Frontal Plagiocephaly: Synostotic, Compensational, or Deformational
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1992Plagiocephaly is a term commonly used to describe congenital forehead asymmetry. Sixty patients with frontal plagiocephaly were evaluated retrospectively and separated into three types: synostotic (N = 24), compensational (N = 3), and deformational (N = 33).

Uvular Malformation in the Presence of Deformational Plagiocephaly
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2015Deformational plagiocephaly is cranial asymmetry caused by external forces on the skull. Deformational plagiocephaly is seen in 5% to 48% of healthy newborns. Incomplete uvular fusion, in contrast, is one of many uvular malformations. The incidence of all degrees of incomplete uvular fusion is approximately 1% in healthy children.

Deformational plagiocephaly: diagnosis, prevention, and treatment
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2005The "Back to Sleep" campaign has dramatically decreased the incidence of sudden infant death syndrome; however, its sequelae of deformational plagiocephaly have today reached epidemic proportions. In the last decade, we have learned to distinguish deformational plagiocephaly clinically from craniosynostosis, thereby preventing its unnecessary surgical ...

Early Neurodevelopment in Infants With Deformational Plagiocephaly
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2013The objective of this study was to characterize the early neurodevelopmental profile of Australian infants with deformational plagiocephaly (DP). Twenty-one infants with a confirmed diagnosis of DP (mean age, 7.9 months; SD, 2.0 months) were assessed on the Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Second Edition, before treatment.
