Positional Plagiocephaly and Craniosynostosis

Pediatric Annals, 2023
Along with the decrease in sudden infant death syndrome due to the successful “Back to Sleep” Campaign, there was a reciprocal increase in cases of positional plagiocephaly (PP). The prevalence of PP significantly rose from approximately 5% to upward of 46% at age 7 months.

FGFR Mutations and Plagiocephaly

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2008
FGFR genes have important effects on bone development, and mutations in 4 "hot spot" exons of FGFR1-3 are found in many patients with craniosynostosis and some with synostotic plagiocephaly. To test the hypothesis that sequence variation in those exons predisposes toward developmental bone deformation, we assayed 160 children with nonsynostotic ...

The skull base in plagiocephaly

Child's Nervous System, 1994
Between 1975 and 1992, 426 children with craniofacial malformations were treated in the Department of Pediatric Neurosurgery at the Hôpital des Enfants de la Timone in Marseille. Plagiocephaly was present in 71 (16.6%). The authors present a reproducible analysis of the skull base in plagiocephaly based on these 71 patients.

Treatment of Plagiocephaly in Infancy*

Southern Medical Journal, 1987
Plagiocephaly is commonly attributed to the synostosis of a single coronal suture. Esthetic deformities associated with plagiocephaly range from mild to severe. Because the deformities are progressive, and more difficult to correct in older children and adults, early diagnosis and correction are important.

Management of positional plagiocephaly

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2008
Plagiocephaly is a term derived from the Greek (plagios– “twisted” and kephale– “head”) and describes an asymmetric head shape. The potential causes of cranial asymmetry are multiple and the most important aspect in assessing any child with plagiocephaly is the need to exclude the possibility of craniosynostosis.

Occipital plagiocephaly: unilateral lambdoid synostosis versus positional plagiocephaly

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2014
We defined parameters that could differentiate between positional and synostotic plagiocephaly and defined a diagnostic chart for decision making.Prospective study.We examined 411 children with non-syndromic skull abnormalities between January 2011 and December 2012.A total of 8 infants under 1 year of age with proven unilateral non-syndromic lambdoid ...

HEAD MOULDING FOR PLAGIOCEPHALY

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2008
Singh and Wacogne are to be congratulated on a succinct and well researched account of the current evidence for and against helmet moulding therapy.1 They have highlighted the preponderance of uncontrolled cohort studies in this field and the absence of evidence one way or the other for this treatment due to lack of randomised controlled trials (RCTs).
