Most frequently there takesplace a one-sided synostosis of the frontoparietal suture23 butsometimes only a part of this is obliterated. The compensatoryexpansion takes place either in the longitudinal direction (longplagiocephalic skull) or in height (high plagiocephalic skull).Clinically, plagiocephaly, caused by suture S3iiostosis, attractsattention through symptoms of craniostenosis, especially at-tacks of headache.
