Abstract:
Background: Fontanelles, membranous gaps in the infant skull, are integral for accommodating the expansion of the skull by the growing brain postnatally. The anterior fontanelle, situated at the frontal-parietal bone intersection, typically closes gradually within the first two years. Fontanellar bone, an exceedingly rare ossification anomaly of the anterior fontanelle, clinically mimics craniosynostosis. Case Description: We present the case of a 22-day-old male with an almost closed anterior fontanelle who underwent evaluation. Prenatal and postnatal history were unremarkable. Physical exami

Abstract:
The study seeks to unearth parental anxiety of perceived disorder and application of concoctions on infant pulsating anterior fontanelle in the Tamale metropolis, Ghana. Pulsation of the anterior fontanelle though a physiological reality of all infants, causes anxiety on the part of parents for fear of the infant suffering some form of harm as a result. A qualitative study which employed the narrative realities of mothers, delving into mothers’ beliefs on the physiologic functionality of the anterior fontanelle and perceived treatment mode commonly employed by mothers.

Abstract:
The anterior fontanelle, sometimes known as the “soft spot,” is an important anatomical component in neonates that allows brain growth and development. Possible harm is caused by such practices, as they may result in unfavorable outcomes, such as skin irritation and a delay in fontanelle closure. The goal of this study was to see how effective pre-planned education was at informing postpartum women about the dangers of applying oil to newborns’ anterior fontanelles. The study was conducted with the goal of increasing the understanding of the adverse effects of oil application on the anterior f

Abstract:
Helmet therapy is an important nonsurgical approach for patients with nonsynostotic plagiocephaly, but its effectiveness may depend on certain anatomical features. We retrospectively examined the effects of helmet therapy according to the size of the anterior fontanelle. Two hundred patients with nonsynostotic plagiocephaly who underwent helmet therapy between 2016 and 2018 were included. Data regarding age at treatment onset and treatment duration were collected. Patients were divided into two groups depending on the age at treatment initiation: the 12–23 weeks group and the &gt;23 weeks grou

Abstract:
Introduction: during the infant development, the organ growth is influenced by genetic factors, diet, hormones and many neuropeptides. The secondary ossification center in the hip joint begins to form around the 4th month of life. Primary dentition begins at the age of 5-6 months with the emergence of the central incisor in the maxilla. At birth, 6 fontanelles are present between the plate bones of the cranium. The largest is the anterior or large fontanelle. Objective of our research is to analyze the development of the secondary ossification center in the femoral head in relation to dentitio

Abstract:
Transient bulging fontanelle is a self-limiting clinical condition characterized by a bulging fontanelle with or without fever, which resolves without medical intervention. It is a relatively uncommon adverse event following immunization. We report a case of an 11 week old, otherwise healthy male infant who presented with a bulging, nontense anterior fontanelle without fever, which developed 11 hours after receiving rotavirus vaccine. Transfontanelle ultrasound scan findings were essentially normal. Two days later, the bulging anterior fontanelle resolved spontaneously. The child had normal ne

Intraventricular Hemorrhage (IVH) is a serious neurovascular complication in neonates that can lead to blood clots forming in the ventricular system [1]. Magnetic resonance-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound (MRgHIFU) has been investigated as a non- invasive treatment for clot lysis [2][3]. However, current MRgHIFU systems are not suitable for treating IVH in neonates. We have developed an MRgHIFU platform optimized for the neonatal brain, which facilitates ergonomic patient positioning and directs treatment through their anterior fontanelle.
