Do Race and Socioeconomic Status Affect Date of Initial Presentation and Repair of Patients with Cleft lip ± Palate and Head Shape Conditions?
CONCLUSIONS: Race and SES may play an important role in the delay of first presentation to plastic surgery clinic and subsequent repair for these patient populations. Further educational efforts must be provided to ensure equitable care. This single institutional study may serve to encourage other academic centers to analyze the timing of care for our pediatric patients.PMID:38073056 | DOI:10.1177/10556656231219417 (Source: The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal)

Is this normal, doctor? Ten normal variants in infancy
Recognizing what is normal constitutes a key skill for medical practitioners, especially paediatricians. It is a necessary requisite to providing reassurance and avoiding unnecessary referrals, investigations and treatment. Normal variants are atypical or uncommon findings in a given population which are of no clinical or pathological significance yet fall within the spectrum of what is considered the normal range. The list of conditions discussed in this article is by no means complete or comprehensive but merely a reflection of frequently encountered issues in primary care, paediatric outpatients and the paediatric emerg...

Nonsyndromic Craniofacial Disorders
We describe the investigation and management of select pediatric craniofacial disorders their recent advances. Positional plagiocephaly: The incidence of positional plagiocephaly has increased since the institution of the "safe to sleep" campaign to reduce sudden infant death syndrome. Positional plagiocephaly may be associated with underlying developmental delay. Nonsyndromic craniosynostosis: Treatment of nonsyndromic craniosynostosis depends on the age of the patient and the suture involved. Pediatric skull lesions: Management of skull lesions depends on histologic diagnosis. Some benign skull lesions are managed conser...
