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).

Success Rates of Cranial Remolding Orthosis Treatment of Plagiocephaly Based on Initial Presentation

Journal of Prosthetics and Orthotics, 2023
Introduction Cranial remolding orthoses (CROs) are used to treat deformational plagiocephaly. Treatment outcomes vary widely depending on treatment timing and severity of the deformity.

Orthotic Helmet Therapy for Deformational Plagiocephaly: Stratifying Outcomes by Insurance

The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal, 2023
Objective Deformational Plagiocephaly (DP) is commonly treated with cranial orthosis, or helmet therapy. A large, national study on the impact of insurance status on helmet outcomes is lacking.

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 ...

Neurocognitive Outcomes in Deformational Plagiocephaly: Is There an Association between Morphologic Severity and Results?

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2023
Background: The neurodevelopmental effects of skull asymmetry and orthotic helmet therapy for deformational plagiocephaly (DP) have had limited investigation.

Occipital plagiocephaly

British 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',

Role of State Insurance Policy in Orthotic Helmet Access for Deformational Plagiocephaly

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2023
Background: Helmet therapy for deformational plagiocephaly has an ideal window for treatment, and timely access to care is vital to achieving optimal benefit.

Predictive Factors of Outcomes in Helmet Therapy for Deformational Plagiocephaly and Brachycephaly

The Journal of craniofacial surgery (Print), 2022
Deformational plagiocephaly and brachycephaly, or abnormal flattening of the infant skull due to external forces, are often managed with orthotic helmet therapy.

Risk factors associated with positional plagiocephaly in healthy Iranian infants: a case-control study

Iranian journal of child neurology, 2022
Objectives Deformation of the skull by external forces in the absence of synostosis has been defined as positional plagiocephaly (PP). The aim of this investigation was to determine the risk factors of PP in healthy Iranian infants.
