Journal of Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery, 2014 AIM This study analyses pathomorphological and physiological head shapes and classifies the pathomorphology in positional plagiocephaly and brachycephaly. PATIENTS AND METHODS 78 infants with a positional plagiocephaly (5.99 months) and 32 infants with

Orbital Expansion in Plagiocephaly
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1988In 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

Positional Plagiocephaly and Craniosynostosis
Pediatric Annals, 2023Along 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.

Palpatory Diagnosis of Plagiocephaly
Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice, 2006The 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 ...

Management of positional plagiocephaly
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2008Plagiocephaly 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.

Treatment of Plagiocephaly in Infancy*
Southern Medical Journal, 1987Plagiocephaly 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.

FGFR Mutations and Plagiocephaly
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2008FGFR 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 ...

Rivista di Neuroradiologia, 2005
After the “Back to Sleep” campaign, promoted in 1992 by the American Academy of Paediatrics to prevent the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), it was recommended to place babies in a supine sleeping position. The incidence of SIDS has fallen dramatically since 1992, whereas there has been a major increase in the incidence of ...

HEAD MOULDING FOR PLAGIOCEPHALY
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2008Singh 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).
