Periostin/Bone Morphogenetic Protein 1 axis axis regulates proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of sutured mesenchymal stem cells and affects coronal suture closure in the TWIST1+/ − mouse model of craniosynostosis
The pathogenesis of coronal suture craniosynostosis is often attributed to the dysregulated cellular dynamics, particularly the excessive proliferation and abnormal osteogenic differentiation of suture cells. ... (Source: Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research)

Primary Intraosseous Granular Cell Tumor of the Sphenoid and Central Skull Base in a Pediatric Patient
We present a primary intra-osseous granular cell tumor of the sphenoid and central skull base arising in a 12- year- old girl.CASE REPORT: A 12-year-old female with sickle cell disease and Jeavons syndrome presented with seizures. Imaging and partial resection revealed an expansile benign granular cell tumor (GCT) involving the sphenoid body, pterygoid process, and central skull base. The disease has remained stable after 36-month follow up.DISCUSSION: GCT primarily involving the osseous sphenoid/skull base has not been previously reported in a child. Although mostly benign, some are aggressive, with malignant transformati...

Hump on head: Rare case of bi-frontal fibrous dysplasia
CONCLUSION: The cases of monostotic skull fibrous dysplasia should be treated by resection of the affected bone and cranioplasty. However, a more conservative re-contouring may be carried out in cases with multifocal involvement or when the excision is considered risky due to proximity to the major venous sinuses.PMID:38344095 | PMC:PMC10858775 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_201_2023 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)
