A model viewing suture physiology as sensitive to changes in the cranial capsule's environment is tested to identify whether several processes stimulate connective tissue transformation in the suture area. Correlation and factor analysis of the suture-to-suture interactions produced results indicating that when age is controlled, endocranial and ectocranial surfaces independently respond to pressures placed on the anterior and posterior portions of the cranial vault. Post-adolescent suture changes appear to be responses to age change in the structures around the cranial capsule. Modelin·g the suture in terms of external pressures provides a clearer understanding of how the cranial capsule is affected by age. V TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER PAGE I.

In most procedures, the fused suture is removed. There are only a few reports on the evolution of sutures after surgical correction of craniosynostosis. To date, no published study describes neosuture formation after total cranial vault remodeling. The objective of this study was to understand the evolution of the cranial bones in the area of coronal and lambdoid sutures that were removed for complete vault remodeling in patients with sagittal craniosynostosis. In particular, the investigation aimed to confirm the possibility of neosuture formation. METHODS CT images of the skulls of children who underwent operations for scaphocephaly at the Hôpital Femme Mère Enfant, Lyon University Hospital, Lyon, France, from 2004 to 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Inclusion crite- ria were diagnosis of isolated sagittal synostosis, age between 4 and 18 months at surgery, and availability of reliable postoperative CT images obtained at a minimum of 1 year after surgical correction. Twenty-six boys and 11 girls were included, with a mean age at surgery of 231.6 days (range 126–449 days).

    Case Report Cleidocranial Dysplasia- A Case Report Akhilanand Chaurasia Department of Oral Medicine & Radiology, Faculty of Dental Sciences, King George Medical University, Lucknow E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Cleidocranial dysplasia is a rare congenital disease. It is characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance pattern which is caused due to mutations in the Cbfa1 gene (Runx2) located on chromosome 6p21. It primarily affects bones which are formedby intra-membranous ossification and have equal sex distribution. It is also known as Marie and Sainton disease, Mutational dysostosis and cleidocranialdysostosis. The skeletal deformities of cleidocranial dysplasia are characterized by partial or complete absence of clavicles, late closure of the fontanels, presence of open skull sutures and multiple wormian bones. This rare syndrome is of utmost importance in dentistry due to presence of multiple supernumerary teeth, facial bones deformities and deranged eruption patterns.

  • Morphological and Topographical Study of Wormian Bones in Cadaver Dry Skulls
    Original article Morphological and topographical study of Wormian bones in cadaver dry skulls Murlimanju, BV.*, Prabhu, LV., Ashraf, CM., Kumar, CG., Rai, R. and Maheshwari, C. Department of Anatomy, Manipal University, Centre for Basic Sciences, Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore, India *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Introduction: The Wormian bones are formations associated with insufficient rate of suture closure and regarded as epigenetic and hypostotic traits. It was reported that there exists racial variability among the incidence of these bones. In the present study, the aims were to find the incidence of Wormian bones in Indian skulls and to analyze them topographically. Material and methods: The study included 78 human adult dry skulls of Indian population which were obtained from the neuroanatomy laboratory of our institution. They were macroscopically observed for the incidence and topographical distribution of the Wormian bones. Results: The Wormian bones were observed in 57 skulls (73.1%) of our series. Remaining 21 skulls (26.9%) didn’t show these variant bones. They were observed at the lambdoid suture in 56.4% cases (44 skulls; 14-bilateral; 18-right side; 12-left side), at the asterion in 17.9% (14 skulls; 3-bilateral; 2-right side; 9-left side), at the pterion in 11.5% (9 skulls; 4-right side; 5-left side), at the coronal suture in 1.3% (only one skull) and at the sagittal suture in 1.3% cases (only one skull). Conclusion: The current study observed Wormian bones in 73.1% of the cases from Indian population. This incidence rate is slightly higher compared to other reports and may be due to racial variations.

Morphology of the Pterion in Serbian Population Morfología del Pterion en Población Serbia Knezi Nikola1; Stojsic Dzunja Ljubica1; Adjic Ivan2; Maric Dusica1 & Pupovac Nikolina4 KNEZI, N.; STOJSIC, D. L.; ADJIC, I.; MARIC, D. & PUPOVAC, N. Morphology of the pterion in Serbian population. Int. J. Morphol., 38(4):820-824, 2020. SUMMARY: The pterion is a topographic point on the lateral aspect of the skull where frontal, sphenoid, parietal and temporal bones form the H or K shaped suture. This is an important surgical point for the lesions in anterior and middle cranial fossa. This study was performed on 50 dry skulls from Serbian adult individuals from Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine in Novi Sad. The type of the pterion on both sides of each skull was determined and they are calcified in four types (sphenoparietal, frontotemporal, stellate and epipteric). The distance between the center of the pterion and defined anthropological landmarks were measured using the ImageJ software. Sphenoparietal type is predominant with 86 % in right side and 88 % in left side. In male skulls, the distance from the right pterion to the frontozygomatic suture is 39.89±3.85 mm and 39.67±4.61 mm from the left pterion to the frontozygomatic suture. In female skulls the distance is 37.38±6.38 mm on the right and 35.94±6.46 mm on the left. The shape and the localization of the pterion are important because it is an anatomical landmark and should be used in neurosurgery, traumatology and ophthalmology.

  • CLOSURE of CRANIAL ARTICULATIONS in the SKULI1 of the AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINE by A
    CLOSURE OF CRANIAL ARTICULATIONS IN THE SKULI1 OF THE AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINE By A. A. ABBIE, Department of Anatomy, University of Adelaide INTRODUCTION While it is well known that joint closure advances more or less progressively with age, there is still little certainty in matters of detail, mainly for lack of adequate series of documented skulls. In consequence, sundry beliefs have arisen which tend to confuse the issue. One view, now disposed of (see Martin, 1928), is that early suture closure indicates a lower or more primitive type of brain. A corollary, due to Broca (see Topinard, 1890), that the more the brain is exercised the more is suture closure postponed, is equally untenable. A very widespread belief is based on Gratiolet's statement (see Topinard, 1890; Frederic, 1906; Martin, 1928; Fenner, 1939; and others) that in 'lower' skulls the sutures are simple and commence to fuse from in front, while in 'higher' skulls the sutures are more complicated and tend to fuse from behind. This view was disproved by Ribbe (quoted from Frederic, 1906), who substituted the generalization that in dolicocephals synostosis begins in the coronal suture, and in brachycephals in the lambdoid suture. In addition to its purely anthropological interest the subject raises important biological considerations of brain-skull relationship, different foetalization in different ethnological groups (see Bolk, 1926; Weidenreich, 1941; Abbie, 1947), and so on. A survey of the literature reveals very little in the way of data on the age incidence of suture closure. The only substantial contribution accessible here comes from Todd & Lyon (1924) for Europeans, but their work is marred by arbitrary rejection of awkward material.

  • Spontaneous Encephaloceles of the Temporal Lobe
    Neurosurg Focus 25 (6):E11, 2008 Spontaneous encephaloceles of the temporal lobe JOSHUA J. WIND , M.D., ANTHONY J. CAPUTY , M.D., AND FABIO ROBE R TI , M.D. Department of Neurological Surgery, George Washington University, Washington, DC Encephaloceles are pathological herniations of brain parenchyma through congenital or acquired osseus-dural defects of the skull base or cranial vault. Although encephaloceles are known as rare conditions, several surgical re- ports and clinical series focusing on spontaneous encephaloceles of the temporal lobe may be found in the otological, maxillofacial, radiological, and neurosurgical literature. A variety of symptoms such as occult or symptomatic CSF fistulas, recurrent meningitis, middle ear effusions or infections, conductive hearing loss, and medically intractable epilepsy have been described in patients harboring spontaneous encephaloceles of middle cranial fossa origin. Both open procedures and endoscopic techniques have been advocated for the treatment of such conditions. The authors discuss the pathogenesis, diagnostic assessment, and therapeutic management of spontaneous temporal lobe encepha- loceles. Although diagnosis and treatment may differ on a case-by-case basis, review of the available literature sug- gests that spontaneous encephaloceles of middle cranial fossa origin are a more common pathology than previously believed. In particular, spontaneous cases of posteroinferior encephaloceles involving the tegmen tympani and the middle ear have been very well described in the medical literature.

Abstract: The cranial bones constitute the protective structures of the skull, which surround and protect the brain. Due to the limited repair capacity, the reconstruction and regeneration of skull defects are considered as an unmet clinical need and challenge. Previously, it has been proposed that the periosteum and dura mater provide reparative progenitors for cranial bones homeostasis and injury repair. In addition, it has also been speculated that the cranial mesenchymal stem cells reside in the perivascular niche of the diploe, namely, the soft spongy cancellous bone between the interior and exterior layers of cortical bone of the skull, which resembles the skeletal stem cells’ distribution pattern of the long bone within the bone marrow.
