Suggestibility
The craniosynostosis was present in only one of the sibs, suggesting intrafamilial variability of the syndrome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The aetiology of this condition remains unknown although an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance has been suggested following the description of sib pairs. [journals.lww.com]

Management and treatment Management depends on the cardinal manifestations and includes surgery for cranial decompression. Supportive measures should be offered. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
Prognosis
Type I has a relatively good prognosis for intellectual outcome. [dokumen.tips]
The prognosis for favorable neurodevelopmental outcome and/or life expectancy remains guarded in most cases. [einstein.pure.elsevier.com]
The common co-existence of hydrocephalus and multiple premature sutural fusion in Pfeiffer syndrome is a further factor in the apparently worse prognosis of this condition when compared to Crouzon and Apert syndrome. [scinapse.io]

Etiology
In the last two decades increased knowledge about the structure and function of the human genome has enabled the discovery of the molecular etiologies of most forms of syndromic craniosynostosis, which in turn has allowed for the analysis of normal and [books.google.com]
