Description: (OMIM) Craniosynostosis is a primary abnormality of skull growth involving premature fusion of the cranial sutures such that the growth velocity of the skull often cannot match that of the developing brain. This produces skull deformity and, in some ...
Clinical Description OMIM Gordon (1959) found multiple cases in 5 of 9 South African families studied in detail. In 4 families, multiple sibs were involved. In the fifth, the mother of an affected child was also affected.

Molecular genetics OMIM Seto et al. (2007) performed mutation analysis in 164 infants with isolated single-suture craniosynostosis and identified novel heterozygous missense mutations in the TWIST1 gene in 2 patients, 1 with coronal (601622.0013) and 1 with sagittal (601622.0014) synostosis. Neither ...
Population genetics OMIM Fitzpatrick (2013) stated that craniosynostosis affects 1 in 2,200 individuals.
