Objective:
To investigate the diagnosis and mapagement of plagiocephaly resulted from For frontosphenoidal synostosis, frontosphenoidal synostosis and squamosal suture synostosis.
Methods:
orthotic nolding therapy should be selected for patients under 3-month-old. If it can' t make effect after treatment for 3 months, transcranial surgery should be adopted with the horizontal advancement of orbitofrontal bar at the affected side. Patients with squamosal suture synostosis should receive prohotic molding From 2005 to 2012, five patients were therapy for six month, remolding the cap every month.
Results:
treated with satisfactory result, including 3 patients with frontosphenoidal synostosis who received surgery and 2 patiens with squamosal suture synostosis who receive orthotic molding therapy only.
Conclusions:
Few patients with plagiocephaly are caused by frontosphenoidal synostosis and squamosal suture synostosis. The orthotic molding therapy should be selected at an early time, but mostly, surgery may be needed for

Sutures of the Skull
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...
Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...
Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
