Purpose: Secondary craniostenosis is a relevant problem pediatric neurosurgeons are confronted with and poses challenges regarding reliable diagnosis of raised ICP, especially in case of absent or questionable papilledema. How to identify children with elevated ICP is still controversial and diagnostics vary. We report on our experience with computerized ICP ONM in relation to imaging derived parameters.

Reduced penetrance and variable expressivity contribute to the wide spectrum of clinical findings. Muenke syndrome constitutes the most common syndromic form of craniosynostosis, with an incidence of 1 in 30,000 births and is defined by the presence of the p.

Study Design: Participants in this cross-sectional study included individuals with Muenke syndrome (P250R mutation in FGFR3) and their mutation-negative siblings. Participants completed validated assessments of executive functioning (Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function [BRIEF]) and adaptive behavior skills (Adaptive Behavior Assessment System, Second Edition [ABAS-II]).
Objective: We defined parameters that could differentiate between positional and synostotic plagiocephaly and defined a diagnostic chart for decision making.
Design: Prospective study.
Setting: We examined 411 children with non-syndromic skull abnormalities between January 2011 and December 2012.
