Premature fusion of craniofacial joints, ie sutures, is a major clinical condition. This condition
affects children and often requires numerous invasive surgeries to correct. Minimally …

Cranial sutures are fibrocellular joints between the skull bones that are progressively
replaced with bone throughout ontogeny, facilitating growth and cranial shape change. This …

In spite of burgeoning of new technologies in the field of maxillofacial surgery, such as novel
methods for osteosynthesis, bone substitution and bone regeneration, the reconstruction of …

Previous computational and experimental analyses revealed that cranial sutures, fibrous
joints between the bones, can reduce the strain experienced by the surrounding skull bones …

The global biomechanical impact of cranial sutures on the face and cranium during dynamic
conditions is not well understood. It is hypothesized that sutures act as energy absorbers …

Craniosynostosis is a condition with neurologic and aesthetic sequelae requiring invasive
surgery. Understanding its pathobiology requires familiarity with the processes underlying …

Sutures are fibrous joints between craniofacial bones, providing an interesting model for
studying the biomechanics of the interface between soft and mineralized tissues. To explore …

Characterizing the biomechanical behavior of sutures in the human craniofacial skeleton
(CFS) is essential to understand the global impact of these articulations on load …

The neonate skull consists of several bony plates, connected by fibrous soft tissue called
sutures. Premature fusion of sutures is a medical condition known as craniosynostosis …

Surgical reconstruction of craniofacial deformities has advanced significantly in recent years.
However, unlike orthopedic surgery of the appendicular skeleton, the biomechanical …
