Brachycephaly and plagiocephaly The head can become flattened at one side, causing the head to look asymmetrical and distorted (for example, so that the ears are not aligned). This is known as plagiocephaly. The whole back of the head can become flattened, causing a widening of the head. This is known as brachycephaly.
Sagittal synostosis is the most common form of synostosis accounting for about 50% of all cases with a prevalence of 1 in 2000 live births. Premature fusion of the sagittal suture restricts the transverse growth of the skull. This results in an increased anteroposterior skull length to accommodate the growing brain.
