[Assymetric skull? Early correct diagnosis is a must! Positional skull deformities can be avoided]. : Sned barnskalle? Ställ rätt diagnos i tid! Lägesbetingade skalldeformationer går att undvika.

• During the past few years the supine sleeping position has successfully been reintroduced for infants in order to prevent sudden infant death syndrome. However, the change in sleeping position has not been accompanied by a soft pillow under the infants head, which has probably caused a higher incidence of acquired skull deformities. These positional skull deformities need to be prevented or treated.
