Sutures of the Skull01:22

Sutures of the Skull

9.6K
The human skull is composed of several bones that come together to protect the brain and support the structures of the face. The junctions where these bones meet are called sutures.
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: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

4.1K
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
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...

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View

4.5K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
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 and Spinal Meninges

3.1K
The cranial and spinal meninges are complex protective structures surrounding the central nervous system (CNS), consisting of the brain and spinal cord. These meninges consist of the dura mater, the arachnoid mater, and the pia mater. They protect the CNS, provide structural support, and aid in circulating cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).
Cranial Meninges
These meningeal layers cover the cranium. The dura mater is the outermost layer of cranial meninges. It is a thick and durable membrane of dense...

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Congenital Abnormalities
  • Neurosurgery

Background:

  • Ossified cephalhematoma is a rare sequela of neonatal cephalhematoma.
  • It presents as a calcified subperiosteal collection, often requiring intervention.

Observation:

  • An 8-month-old infant presented with a right parieto-occipital ossified cephalhematoma.
  • Pre-operative imaging confirmed a calcified subperiosteal hematoma.

Findings:

  • Surgical excision of the hematoma and bone contouring were performed.
  • Histopathology revealed hemosiderin-laden macrophages, blood, and pseudocyst walls.

Implications:

  • This case contributes to understanding the pathogenesis of ossified cephalhematoma.
  • It underscores the importance of timely management and surgical options for this rare condition.
