Evaluation of the infant with an abnormal skull shape.

Current opinion in pediatrics - 1 Dec 2007

Cunningham Michael L, Heike Carrie L

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Atypical skull shapes occur in as many as 20% of infants. The purpose of this review is to discuss the clinical approach to the evaluation of a child with an abnormal head shape. Readers will learn how to identify the head shapes caused by environmental deformation and craniosynostosis. We also review recent findings with regard to the genetics of single-suture craniosynostosis. RECENT...
