Facial asymmetry in children with either unilateral lambdoid craniosynostosis or positional posterior plagiocephaly

open access: yesOrthodontics &Craniofacial Research, Volume 26, Issue 2, Page 216-223, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Background In unilateral lambdoid craniosynostosis (ULC), the posteriorly situated lambdoid suture of the cranial vault fuses prematurely. Positional posterior plagiocephaly (PPP) causes flattening of the posterior side of the head, either through external forces or through underlying differences in brain development.

Microcornea, iris and choroidal coloboma, and global developmental delay caused by TENM3 pathogenic variants in a Chinese patient

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022
To date, only four cases of MCOPS15 were reported and the clinical features of the patients were variable, which indicate potential broad phenotypic spectrum. In this study, using trio‐whole exome sequencing, we identified biallelic variants (L1471F and E661G) of TENM3, in a 6 months Chinese boy. Our findings expand the mutational spectrum of the TENM3

Anatomical Engineering and 3D Printing for Surgery and Medical Devices: International Review and Future Exponential Innovations

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Three‐dimensional printing (3DP) has recently gained importance in the medical industry, especially in surgical specialties. It uses different techniques and materials based on patients’ needs, which allows bioprofessionals to design and develop unique pieces using medical imaging provided by computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

A case of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva associated with a novel variant of the ACVR1 gene

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2021., 2021
FOP is a rare genetic disease representing the most severe and disabling condition due to heterotopic ossification associated with gain‐of‐function mutations of the ACVR1 gene. We describe here a little patient with an early clinical presentation of the disease carrying a novel substituton of the ACVR1 causative gene. Abstract Background Fibrodysplasia

Direct Anthropometry Overestimates Cranial Asymmetry—3D Digital Photography Proves to Be a Reliable Alternative

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
This study compared manual and digital measurements of plagiocephaly and brachycephaly in infants and evaluated whether three-dimensional (3D) digital photography measurements can be used as a superior alternative in everyday clinical practice.

Effectiveness of pediatric integrative manual therapy in cervical movement limitation in infants with positional plagiocephaly: a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesItalian Journal of Pediatrics, 2021
Background Positional plagiocephaly (PP) is a cranial deformation frequent amongst children and consisting in a flattened and asymmetrical head shape. PP is associated with excessive time in supine and with congenital muscular torticollis (CMT).

Interrater and Intrarater Reliability of Cranial Anthropometric Measurements in Infants with Positional Plagiocephaly

open access: yesChildren, 2020
(1) Background: anthropometric measurements with calipers are used to objectify cranial asymmetry in positional plagiocephaly but there is controversy regarding the reliability of different methodologies. Purpose: to analyze the interrater and intrarater

Neurologic Findings in Infants With Deformational Plagiocephaly [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Child Neurology, 2008
This study evaluates the neurologic profiles of infants with deformational plagiocephaly. Forty-nine infants with deformational plagiocephaly between the ages of 4 and 13 months (mean age, 8.1 months) are evaluated, along with 50 age-matched control subjects (mean age, 8.1 months).

Correlative vs. Causative Relationship between Neonatal Cranial Head Shape Anomalies and Early Developmental Delays

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Deformational plagiocephaly and craniosynostosis are two of the most common neonatal cranial head shape anomalies. Traditionally, both entities were thought to cause aesthetic concerns solely.

Ultrasonographic Measurement of Anterior Fontanelle Size in Infants with Deformational Plagiocephaly. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Med
Background/Objectives: We aimed to investigate the relationship between deformational plagiocephaly (DP) severity and anterior fontanelle size and to explore the connection between fontanelle size and developmental delay.
