The fontanelles may remain open until adulthood, but the sutures often close with interposition of wormian bones. Bosses of the frontal, parietal, and occipital regions give the skull a large globular shape with small face. The characteristic skull abnormalities are sometimes referred to as the "Arnold head" named after the descendants of a Chinese who settled in South Africa and changed his name to Arnold. More than 100 additional anomalies may be associated, including wide pubic symphysis, dental abnormalities, short middle phalanges of the fifth fingers, delayed skeletal maturation, hearing deficiency, and mild mental retardation in some cases. Major Features Head and neck: Brachycephaly with bossing of the frontal, parietal, and occipital bossing give the head a large globular appearance with a small face because of smallness of the maxillary and zygomatic bones and relative prognathism. Additional abnormalities include open fontanels; open cranial sutures; calvarial thickening in the supraorbital part of the bone, squama of the temporal bones, and the occipital bone; wormian bones filling suture lines, occasional absence of the parietal bones, faulty development of the foramen magnum, and dysplasia of the paranasal sinuses and mastoids.

The National Craniofacial Association P. O. Box 11082 * Chattanooga, TN 37401 Cleidocranial Dysplasia What is Cleidocranial Dysplasia? Cleidocranial Dysplasia ( cleido = collar bone, + cranial = head, + dysplasia = abnormal forming) , also known as Cleidocranial Dysostosis and Marie-Sainton Disease, is a condition characterized by defective development of the cranial bones and by the complete or partial absence of the collar bones (clavicles). Characteristics include: Delayed closure (ossification) of the space between the bones of the skull (fontanels) Premature closing of the coronal suture Protruding jaw (mandible) and protruding brow bone (frontal bossing) Wide nasal bridge due to increased space between the eyes (hypertelorism) High arched palate or possible cleft palate Short stature Scoliosis of the spine Why did this happen? There is no link between anything the mother did or did not do while she was pregnant and the occurrence of Cleidocranial Dysplasia. It is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. The cause is not yet known, but several chromosome abnormalities have been linked with this syndrome, including chromosome 6p21. Will this happen to children I have in the future?

Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) At A Glance What is cleidocranial dysplasia? Cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) is a genetic (inherited) disorder of bone development which is characterized by: Absent or incompletely formed collar bones (the "cleido-" part refers to the clavicles, the collar bones). A person with this condition can bring his/her shoulders together or nearly so; and Typical cranial and facial abnormalities with square skull, late closure of the sutures of the skull, late closure of the fontanels (the soft spots), low nasal bridge, delayed eruption of the teeth, abnormal permanent teeth, etc. How does a person acquire CCD? The disorder is transmitted genetically in an autosomal dominant manner. This means that one parent with the condition has a 50:50 chance of passing CCD to each of their children. Boys and girls are equally affected. What is the molecular genetic basis for CCD?

Questions in the Child Behavioral Health Forum have been answered by Dr. Kevin Kennedy of Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates. CLEIDOCRANIAL DYSPLASIA Forum: The Child Behavioral Health Forum Topic: Normal Child Development Subject: CLEIDOCRANIAL DYSPLASIA From To Post chattymom She is pregnant again and is concerned about this. She can find no information. Is there someplace to go or call for information? Thank you for your time. HVMA-Ph.D.-KDK chattymom This inherited disorder affects the development of bones and can include an absent or not completely formed collar bone, dental abnormalities and facial appearance often typified by protruding jaw, wide nasal bridge, and poorly aligned teeth. The disorder requires that only one parent has the trait, and the risk of recurrence is 50%. If your friend conducts an internet search, she will find a number of web sites devoted to the condition.
