The most severe form of pansynostosis is kleeblattschädel (cloverleaf skull), which presents with bulging of the different bones of the cranial vault. Kleeblattschädel is a feature of several conditions and can also be seen in nonsyndromic manifestations.
Kleeblattschaedel is a rare malformation of the head where there is a protrusion of the skull and broadening of the face. [2] This condition is a severe type of craniosynostosis. [3] The condition can be both isolated or associated with other craniofacial dysostosises.
Pfeiffer syndrome is a rare genetic disorder, characterized by the premature fusion of certain bones of the skull (craniosynostosis), which affects the shape of the head and face. The syndrome includes abnormalities of the hands and feet, such as wide and deviated thumbs and big toes.
Beare–Stevenson cutis gyrata syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by craniosynostosis (premature fusion of certain bones of the skull, sometimes resulting in a characteristic 'cloverleaf skull'; further growth of the skull is prevented, and therefore the shape of the head and face is abnormal) and a specific skin abnormality ...
Craniosynostosis, a condition in which the sutures of the head (joints between the bones of the skull) prematurely fuse and subsequently alter the shape of the head, is seen in multiple conditions, as listed below. The level of involvement varies by condition and can range from minor, single-suture craniosynostosis to major, multisutural ...
Craniosynostosis with anomalies of the cranial base and digits is a syndrome characterized by atypical development in a fetus's limbs and skull. People with this condition are often missing the middle parts of the second and fifth fingers, as well as their thumbs, though the thumbs may be improperly positioned.
Craniosynostosis and dental anomalies (CRSDA, also known as Kreiborg-Pakistani syndrome) is an autosomal recessive syndrome characterized by craniosynostosis, maxillary hypoplasia, and dental anomalies. Dental anomalies seen in this condition include malocclusion, delayed and ectopic tooth eruption, and/or supernumerary teeth.
Craniosynostosis, Adelaide type (CRSA) is a syndrome characterized by cone-shaped epiphyses, phalangeal hypoplasia, and carpal bone malsegmentation along with craniosynostosis.
Craniosynostosis, Philadelphia type is a rare autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by sagittal craniosynostosis (scaphocephaly) and soft tissue syndactyly of the hands and feet. This condition is considered a form of acrocephalosyndactyly.
Scaphocephaly, or sagittal craniosynostosis, is a type of cephalic disorder which occurs when there is a premature fusion of the sagittal suture. Premature closure results in limited lateral expansion of the skull resulting in a characteristic long, narrow head. The skull base is typically spared.
