What Is Plagiocephaly?

0

The Term Plagiocephaly is a blanket word for covering three different types of flattening on a child’s head. The three different types are: • Plagiocephaly. (Play-gee-o-kef-a-lee) • Brachycephaly. (Bray-key-kef-a-lee) • Scaphycephaly. (Scay-fee-kef-a-lee) All three terms describe the flattening on different areas of a child’s head. Brachycephaly and Plagiocephaly are the most common, however, it is not uncommon for a child to have both Plagiocephaly and Brachycephaly together.
