What are the Craniometric Points of the aspects of the skull?2

4,*Lambda (Greek Λ)* - Junction of Sagittal & Lambdoidal suture 5.*Vertex* - Most superior-point of cranium (top-of-the-head) • In anatomical position • Oriented to *Orbitomeatal Plane*

What are the Craniometric Points of the aspects of the skull?3

6. *Asterion* - Junction of *Lambdoidal, Parietomastoid & Occipitomastoid Suture* 7.*Inion* (Back-of-the-head) - Posterior tip of external occipital protuberance 8.*Pterion* - Junction of parietal, sphenoid, temporal, frontal bones - *Clinically Significant*

What are the aspects of the Cranium?(Frontal Eminence)

Bilateral prominent area above each orbit

✚ Hemifacial Microsomia ("Lateral Facial Dysplasia"):Causes

Cause: - Unknown - Possibly damaged or disturbed blood supply to branchial arches • First 6-8 weeks of pregnancy

Fetal Skull Characteristics

Characteristics: 1.Large Cranium • ~1/4 of skeleton • Due to precocious growth of brain and eyes 2.Small Viscerocranium • No teeth, sinuses • Small maxillae, mandible, small nose 3.No Diploë • Bones are unilaminar at birth(Single plate of compact bone) 4.Prominent Frontal & Parietal Eminence • Give head round shape
