Occipital plagiocephaly

open access: yesBritish Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2000
The diagnosis of occipital plagiocephaly has remained a complex and controversial issue in the field of craniofacial surgery. Over the past 30 years, numerous studies have been published describing the management and treatment for 'posterior plagiocephaly', 'plagiocephaly without synostosis', 'deformational plagiocephaly' and 'occipital plagiocephaly',

Posterior plagiocephaly

Child's Nervous System, 2012
Asymmetrical cranial vaults resulting from external forces on an infant's head can be caused by abnormal sutural development (synostotic plagiocephaly) or abnormal external forces acting on an intrinsically normal, developing cranium (deformational plagiocephaly).The incidence of posterior plagiocephaly has increased dramatically since the initiation ...

Palpatory diagnosis of plagiocephaly

Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice, 2006
The term plagiocephaly, from the Greek plagios (oblique) and kephalê (head), means distortion of the head, and refers clinically to cranial asymmetry. Cranial Osteopathy, since it was first proposed, has focussed upon the diagnosis and treatment of birth trauma and cranial asymmetries, and consequently specific therapy for plagiocephalic deformities ...

Torticollis and plagiocephaly in infancy: Therapeutic strategies

open access: yesDevelopmental Neurorehabilitation, 2006
Asymmetry in infancy is a diagnosis with a large spectrum of features, expressing an abnormal shape of parts of the body or unequal postures and movements, which might be structural and/or functional, with localized or generalized expression. The purpose

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.

Orbital Expansion in Plagiocephaly

Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1988
In moderate to severe plagiocephaly, the transverse diameter of the orbit on the affected side is consistently decreased. In these cases, the supraorbital rim has been expanded by the required amount and bone grafted. This makes for greater orbital symmetry and ease in obtaining the correct supraorbital convexity. Ten patients have been handled in this

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 ...
