DEF

Déformation crânienne parfois observée dans l'ostéogénèse imparfaite : crâne élargi transversalement avec saillie en bourrelet des régions temporo-pariétales et occipitales.

OBS

[La] déformation [crânienne est] due en partie à un retard de l'ossification de la voûte. [Elle] s'associe parfois à une extrême minceur de celle-ci, et à une impression basilaire en rapport avec un retard de l'ossification de base.

OBS

On utilise parfois le terme crâne en chignon pour désigner plus spécifiquement le crâne avec saillie occipitale.
