Impact of parent practices of infant positioning on head orientation profile and development of positional plagiocephaly in healthy term infants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The influence of infant positioning on the development of head orientation and plagiocephaly is not clear. This study explored the relationship between infant body and head positioning, with the development of asymmetrical head orientation and/or ...

Identification of a genetic cause for isolated unilateral coronal synostosis: a unique mutation in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3.

open access: yes, 1998
To determine whether the autosomal dominant fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) Pro250Arg mutation causes anterior plagiocephaly, patients with either apparently sporadic unicoronal synostosis (N = 37) or other forms of anterior plagiocephaly (N =

Plagiocephaly: Developmental and Medical Outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Plagiocephaly, a condition that is observed by deformation of the head, comes as the result of different etiologies. The most serious involving premature fusion of one or more of the cranial sutures, a condition referred to as craniosynostosis.

Machine Learning-Based Identification of Craniosynostosis From Nonsynostotic Cranial Deformities

open access: yes
Objective Craniosynostosis, the premature fusion of cranial sutures, affects 5.2 cases per 10,000 live births and can result in impaired neurodevelopment if not treated early, often necessitating surgery.

Nasal and ethmoidal alterations in anterior synostotic plagiocephaly

open access: yes, 2011
Nasal deviation plays an important role in plagiocephaly nosography, and it is frequent in plagiocephaly and objectivable both in early treated patients and in those patients who did not undergo any surgical ...

Anterior plagiocephaly with contralateral superior oblique overaction

open access: yes, 2008
Anterior plagiocephaly is a craniofacial anomaly related to premature unilateral synostosis. We present three cases of anterior plagiocephaly with contralateral superior oblique dysfunction.
