- Cranial vault expansion is a surgery to correct and reduce the risk of future craniofacial deformities caused by a condition called pediatric craniostenosis. Pediatric craniosynstenosis is the name of a condition where pediatric sutures, which are bony plates in an infant’s head, fuse together too early.

- Foramen magnum in Latin means great hole. It is the largest of several openings called foramen or canals in the base of the skull to allow for the passage of nerves, blood vessels, cerebrospinal fluid and connective tissue into and out of the brain. It is located in the anterior portion (front) of the occipital bone.The picture above shows the skull base looking down into it, the front of the skull is at the top and the foramen magnum is the largest opening and is not labeled. There are several important structures that pass through the foramen magnum (FM).t is located in the anterior portion (front) of the occipital bone.

What is Cranial Release Technique? Cranial Release Technique (CRT) is a natural, hands-on approach to releasing the body’s inborn capacity to heal and regenerate itself. CRT can be applied in only minutes, yet it has profound effects on overall health and well-being.

Non-visualisation of cavum septi pellucidi: implication in prenatal diagnosis? Observation of a normal cavum septi pellucidi (CSP) is an important landmark in the second and third trimester prenatal ultrasound evaluation of the fetal brain, and its visualisation provides reassurance of normal central forebrain development.

- All rights reserved. 2 Objectives: 1. Discuss the features of intracranial space-occupying expanding mass lesions within the rigid cranium and list compensatory mechanisms for space-occupying lesions. 2. List effects of increased intracranial pressure produced by supratentorial space-occupying lesions. 3. List the consequences of uncal herniation. 4. Describe the effects of downward displacement of the brainstem (central herniation). 5. Describe the pathogenesis and consequences of cerebellar tonsil herniation.

Anatomy of the Newborn Skull Sutures allow the bones to move during the birth process. They act like an expansion joint, allowing the bone to enlarge evenly as the brain grows and the skull expands, resulting in a symmetrically shaped head. However, if any of the sutures close too early (fuse prematurely), there may be no growth in that area.

What is Craniocervical Instability? What is Craniocervical Instability? HomeWhat is Craniocervical Instability? Craniocervical Instability (CCI), also known as the Syndrome of Occipitoatlantialaxial Hypermobility, is a structural instability of the craniocervical junction which may lead to a pathological deformation of the brainstem, upper spinal cord, and cerebellum.

Brain size Cranial capacity is a measure of the volume of the interior of the cranium (also called the braincase or brainpan or skull) of those vertebrates who have both a cranium and a brain. The most commonly used unit of measure is the cubic centimetre or cm 3.

- The palatal expander is an orthodontic appliance used to widen the roof of your mouth. It is attached to the upper molars by bonded bands and works by putting gradual pressure on the left and right halves of the upper jaw. This pressure gently expands the palate and new bone is generated in its place.

Craniosynostosis Craniosynostosis (from cranio, cranium; + syn, together; + ostosis relating to bone) is a condition in which one or more of the fibrous sutures in an infant skull prematurely fuses by turning into bone (ossification), thereby changing the growth pattern of the skull.he second most common type is the coronal synostosis representing 20 to 25%. The metopic synostosis comes third with 5 to 15% and the lambdoid synostosis is only seen in 0 to 5% of nonsyndromic cases. In about 5 to 15% more than one suture is affected, which referred to as complex craniosynostosis.

Anterior and Posterior Repair (Colporrhaphy) Anterior and posterior repair are used to tighten the support tissues that hold these organs in place, restoring their normal position and function. Anterior repair is used to tighten the front (anterior) wall of the vagina. It is used when the bladder drops out of its normal position and bulges into the front of the vagina, causing the front wall of the vagina to sag. This condition is known as anterior wall prolapse, cystocele or dropped bladder.

What is a Rapid Palatal Expander? Since we are separating a mid palatal suture, it is better to do this procedure at a younger age before the palatal suture becomes fused. With adults, the maxilla can be expanded by using an RPE and having surgery performed by an oral surgeon. This procedure is called Surgically Assisted Rapid Palatal Expander (SARPE). During the surgery the palatal suture is opened with side releasing incisions and all the expansion is completed at one time.

Cranial vault Cranial vault. The cranial vault is the space in the skull within the neurocranium, occupied by the brain. In humans, the size and shape of the brain, may be affected by the size of the vault as shown in craniometry, but studies relating it to intelligence have found no conclusive evidence.

Enlarged parietal foramina Enlarged parietal foramina is an inherited condition of impaired skull development. It is characterized by enlarged openings (foramina) in the two bones (parietal bones) that form the top and sides of the skull. This condition is due to problems with bone formation (ossification) within the parietal bones.

Left temporal parietal craniotomy treatment report What is Left temporal parietal craniotomy? A craniotomy is a surgical operation in which a bone flap is removed from the skull, to access the brain. Craniotomies are performed for brain lesions or traumatic brain injury, to implant deep brain stimulators for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, epilepsy and cerebellar tremor. See patients taking Left temporal parietal craniotomy.
