Author(s) / Joseph F. Terpenning, CO Abstract / Plagiocephaly (plagios for oblique and kephale for head) is a general term used to describe cranial asymmetry solely on the basis of physical attributes of the skull, as visible to the observer.1 Deformational plagiocephaly recently entered the public spotlight after the American Academy of Pediatrics issued a report in 1992 stating that infants should be positioned on their backs while sleeping to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome.2 Since the release of the Academy's report, research correlating sleep position and the occurrence of cranial deformation has increased the number of patients evaluated and treated for plagiocephaly.3,4 Intentional remodeling of cranial bones has been in practice since the seventh millennium BC, when the Egyptians created specifically desired head shapes to suit cultural mores.5,6 Clarren et al.7 first introduced cranial molding principles as an orthotic modality in 1979. Orthotists today continue to use these principles as an effective nonsurgical treatment of this condition. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of orthotic cranioplasty as a nonsurgical treatment for patients with positional plagiocephaly, and it provides statistical evidence to support the treatment's effectiveness.
