Plagiocephaly
Craniosynostosis
Children with a misshaped head due to positioning. This is also known as flat head. Children with plagiocephaly will be treated with either the Hangar Helmet or the P-Pod helmet.
Craniosynostosis occurs when one or multiple sutures fuse too early. Several sutures may be fused alone or in combination. An open or endoscopic surgical procedure to open the suture(s) is necessary to allow for normal brain growth and development. After surgery a cranial remolding helmet is used to direct skull growth. Children with craniosynostosis will be treated with either the Hangar Helmet or the P-Pod helmet
