Background: Positional plagiocephaly or brachycephaly (PPB), linked to developmental delays and asymmetrical features, often prompts parental concern and medical consultation.
Objective: This qualitative study explores factors influencing parental adherence to PPB prevention strategies.

Two-Dimensional and Three-Dimensional Changes in Deformational Head Shapes During Repositioning Therapy and Cranial Remolding Treatment.

Analytical Imaging and Modeling Center, Children's Health, 1935 Medical District Drive, Dallas, TX 75235, USA.
The surge in deformational head shapes (DHSs) over the past 30 years has led to increased interest in comparing the treatment options of Repositioning Therapy (RT) and a Cranial Remolding Orthosis (CRO). This study investigates the amount and rate of 2D and 3D correction in infants with DHSs during these treatments. A total of 34 infants with DHSs were enrolled (RT group, = 18; CRO group, = 16).

Positional deformity (PD), also known as deformational plagiocephaly or non-synostosis, is a primary cause of abnormal head shape and asymmetry in infants. The most common type, occipital plagiocephaly, leads to flattening of one side of the back of the head or the entire head (positional brachycephaly). PD results from external forces on the growing skull, often due to childbirth and improper positioning during sleep.

Clínica Plagiocefalia Argentina, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Unlabelled: Positional plagiocephaly is a common pediatric pathology that has been considered as a cosmetic condition, but recently its association with neurodevelopmental delay has been explored.
Objective: To perform a narrative review updating the findings of a 2017 systematic review on plagiocephaly and neurodevelopment.
Methodology: Articles in the MEDLINE, PubMed, Google Scholar, and DeepDyve databases were reviewed, data were extracted from the most relevant studies evaluating their methodological quality.
Craniosynostosis as a cause of intracranial hypertension in Alagille syndrome: a case series of 6 consecutive pediatric patients.
Neurosurg Focus

1Department of Pediatric Neurosurgery, Hôpital Necker - Enfants Malades, Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris.
Objective: Craniosynostoses are an underrecognized cause of intracranial hypertension (ICH), especially when associated with congenital syndromes. Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a multisystem disorder with typical facial features and hepatobiliary, cardiac, vascular, skeletal, and ocular manifestations. The occurrence of craniosynostosis in ALGS is rare and can be associated with chronic ICH, requiring craniofacial surgery to increase the intracranial volume.
