Deformational plagiocephaly multi-group outpatient clinics reduce referral to visit times and visit length.

Objective: Deformational plagiocephaly (DP) is a well-recognized condition, affecting up to 20% of all babies. Its prevalence lead centers worldwide to create multi-group clinics and incorporate technology to decrease repetitive counselling, save clinic hours and shorten waiting times. This paper describes the modalities incorporated in our craniofacial clinic since 2016 and their effect on our patient population.

Complications of cranioplasty in relationship to traumatic brain injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Despite being a common procedure, cranioplasty (CP) is associated with a variety of serious, at times lethal, complications. This study explored the relationship between the initial injury leading to decompressive craniectomy (DC) and the rates and types of complications after subsequent CP. It specifically compared between traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients and patients undergoing CP after DC for other indications.
