Plagiocephaly also known as coronal synostosis is the premature fusion of the left or right side of the coronal suture. This fusion causes the forehead and brow on the affected side to stop growing. The affected side would appear flattened and the opposite side to be more prominent. Trigonocephaly is the fusion of the metopic suture which causes a prominent ridge running down the forehead. This causes the forehead to be pointed in a triangular shape. The most common type of craniosynostosis is scaphocephaly which is the fusion of sagittal suture. This causes a long and narrow
