abstract：:Plagiocephaly is a descriptive term that connotes an asymmetrically oblique or twisted head. Such cranial dysmorphology has a number of etiologies, the most common of which are unicoronal synostosis, unilambdoid synostosis, and plagiocephaly without synostosis. Use of the term plagiocephaly in the literature is often ...
