Understanding Brachycephaly: Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment Options

Brachycephaly is a condition where the skull is shorter and wider than normal, resulting in a flattened or shortened appearance. It can occur due to various genetic or environmental factors, such as premature birth, intrauterine growth restriction, or certain medical conditions like craniosynostosis. Brachycephaly can be diagnosed through imaging tests like X-rays or CT scans, and treatment options may include helmets or other orthotic devices to help reshape the skull.
