Skull Normal Sutures
Computed Tomography (CT) scan with 3D surface-rendered reconstructions.
Vertex (A) and lateral (B) views.
- (a) Metopic suture; (b) coronal sutures; (c) sagittal suture; (d) lambdoid suture; (e) squamosal suture; (f) anterior fontanel; (g) posterior fontanel; (h) sphenoidal fontanel; (i) mastoid fontanel.
- Cranial vault bones usually ossify from the center to periphery, which results in this “widened” appearance of the sutures in the newborn.
Endocranial skull base view (C) shows portions of the occipital bone and sutures
- (j) Basioccipital; (k) paired exoccipital; (l) supraoccipital; and (m) interparietal. Associated synchondroses are (n) spheno-occipital; (o)anterior intra-occipital; (p) posterior intra-occipital; (q) petro-occipital; (r) occipitomastoid; (s) and mendosal sutures. Note that o, k, p and s are paired structures.
Vertex view (D) shows the lambda (point of intersection of the sagittal and lambdoid sutures) and bregma (point of intersection of the coronal and sagittal sutures.
Endocranial skull base view (E) shows the basion (located on the basiocciput, at the midpoint of the anterior margin of the foramen magnum) and opisthion (located on the occipital bone, at the midpoint of the posterior margin of the foramen magnum).
