The Role of Age and Initial Deformation on Final Cranial Asymmetry in Infants with Plagiocephaly Treated with Helmet Therapy

Abstract

In a comparison of patients who initiated helmet therapy at 4-5 and 6-8 months of age, only cranial asymmetry at the outset of therapy was correlated with final cranial asymmetry (r = 0.43, p = 0.007).
