Synonyms |
Rhomboid shaped head Flat head syndrome Flattening of head Asymmetry of the posterior cranium Flattening of skull Flat head Flattening of cranial vault Positional plagiocephaly Rhomboid shaped skull Asymmetry of the posterior head Deformational plagiocephaly Rhomboid shaped cranium Flattening of cranium Asymmetry of the posterior skull |
Definitions |
Asymmetric head shape, which is usually a combination of unilateral occipital flattening with ipsilateral frontal prominence, leading to rhomboid cranial shape. Plagiocephaly may affect the posterior skull alone. With plagiocephaly, one can see a combination of unilateral occipital flattening with ipsilateral frontal prominence, leading to rhomboid cranial shape or asymmetry of the posterior skull alone. |
