title: [Studies on skull morphology in cleidocranial dysostosis].
abstract: Using computerized tomography (5 patients) and lateral cephalograms (17 patients) for analysing craniofacial pathology in patients with cleidocranial dysostosis, a number of specific morphologic disorders could be demonstrated in great detail. Furthermore, new characteristics of cranial base dysplasia and disproportion of the facial skeleton could be clearly demonstrated. These findings also explain the typical concave profile of these patients.
