They also found a tendency to larger values for measurements running away from the coronal and closer to the sagittal sutures, with the thickest points located simultaneously close to the
lambdoid and sagittal sutures--7.

lambdoid craniosynostosis (right) (https://www.
After reflecting the scalp, coronal, sagittal,
lambdoid sutures were studied applying Acsadi-Nemeskeri scale endocranially, after removing the calvaria by craniotome taking due care to include complete coronal and sagittal suture.
1977 The Effect of Artificial Cranial Deformation on the Incidence of Wormian Bones in the
Lambdoid Suture.
Microcephaly had resulted from early closure of sagittal and coronal sutures and
lambdoid suture while plagiocephaly resulted from early metopic suture closure.
Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome (SGS) is characterized by craniosynostosis (involving the coronal, sagittal, or
lambdoid sutures), distinctive craniofacial features, skeletal changes (dolichostenomelia, arachnodactyly, camptodactyly, pes planus, pectus excavatum or carinatum, scoliosis, joint hypermobility, or contractures), neurologic abnormalities, mild-to-moderate intellectual disability, and brain anomalies.
Supraorbital nerve is the larger terminal branch of the frontal nerve, which is a branch of ophthalmic division of trigeminal nerve and it traverses through the SON/SOF and divides into medial and lateral branches to supply the palpebral filaments to the upper eyelid, conjunctiva and skin of the scalp as far back as the
lambdoid suture.
Lambdoid craniosynostosis, which is caused by early fusion of the
lambdoid suture, is rare but it is "what people worry about with posterior flattening," Dr.
The stx genes are located in the genome of heterogeneous,
lambdoid, functional/cryptic bacteriophages.
Analysis of endo-nuclease R-EcoRI fragments of DNA from
lambdoid bacteriophages and other viruses by agarose gel electrophoresis.
Those on how phages contribute to virulence include
lambdoid phages and shiga toxin, the prophage arsenal of Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium, pathogenic vibrios, Bordetella and mycoplasma phages, mycobacteriophages, phage involvement with bacterial vaginosis, botulism, and diphtheria, and staphylococcal, streptococcal, pneumococcal phages.
In contrast, an infant with occipital flattening at birth is more likely to have
lambdoid craniosynostosis, which is not a positional defect and requires different management.
