Currently there are over 180 syndromes associated with craniosynostosis, and these vary greatly in terms of identified genes and clinical presentation [ 8 ]. [alliedacademies.org]
Eleven presented with multiple malformations. An in utero exposure to valproic acid was observed in two cases of the group 1, five cases of the group 2 and one case of the group 3. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

All of them had clinical symptoms such as severe hyperactivity, speech delay, inability to communicate with others, self-mutilation (head banging), irritability, temper tantrum and mental retardation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
Specifically, recommendations include a diagnostic workup by an ophthalmologist within the patient’s first year of life with treatment as needed. [cappskids.org]
Treatment
Make informed clinical choices for each patient, from diagnosis and treatment selection through post-treatment strategies and management of complications, with new evidence-based criteria throughout. [books.google.com]

Prognosis
The prognosis, which depends on the associated anomalies, is usually very poor. [sonoworld.com]
Prognosis In general, a single operation is all that is necessary to treat this condition and the cosmetic and clinical outcomes are usually excellent especially for otherwise healthy, nonsyndromic infants. [skullbaseinstitute.com]
The severity of the cranial bone deformations, associated systemic abnormalities and age of diagnosis may yield variable treatment outcomes and overall prognosis [6]. [eyewiki.aao.org]
There may be severe airway obstruction and the clinical prognosis is often poor, unless improved by some very aggressive surgical management. [childneurosurgeon.com]
Prognosis Dependent on cause of craniosynostosis - if secondary then depends on cause of brain injury. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Etiology
The etiology of craniosynostosis is heterogeneous. Isolated occurrence with unknown etiology is common, mostly affecting the sagittal suture. [ommbid.mhmedical.com]
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]
Occurrence Asymmetry of the head is a common occurrence in infants and may have a number of etiologies, including positional deformity, simple craniosynostosis, complex craniofacial synostosis, metabolic bone disease, depressed skull fracture, microcephaly [pedsinreview.aappublications.org]
However, the concordance rate of isolated trigonocephaly in monozygotic twins is 43%, suggesting that both genetic and environmental factors are involved in the etiology of this disorder. [panafrican-med-journal.com]
The etiology of trigonocephaly is mostly unknown although there are three main theories. Trigonocephaly is probably a multifactorial congenital condition, but due to limited proof of these theories this cannot safely be concluded. [craniofacialcochin.com]
