  • Anterior Fontanelle size among term neonates on the first day of life born at university of gondar hospital northwest ethiopia
    2018
    Co-Authors: Mohammed Oumer, Edengenet Guday, Alemayehu Teklu, Abebe Muche
    Abstract:

    Background Anterior Fontanelle is the largest, prominent and most important Fontanelle, which is used for clinical evaluation. It is mainly characterized by its size and shape variation and is possibly influenced by gender, race and genetics. Understanding the variation of Anterior Fontanelle is used for recognition of different medical disorders and abnormal skeletal morphogenesis. Objective To determine the mean size of Anterior Fontanelle among term neonates on the first day of life born at University of Gondar Hospital, Gondar Town, Northwest Ethiopia, 2018. Methods Descriptive cross sectional study design was undertaken in 384 term and apparently healthy neonates, using standard methods. Descriptive analysis, student t-test, one way ANOVA and Pearson correlation coefficient were implemented. Results In this study, the mean size of Anterior Fontanelle in term neonates was 3.00 ± 0.62 cm (range 1.70–5.50 cm). The mean size of Anterior Fontanelle was 3.10 ± 0.66 cm for males, and 2.88 ± 0.57 cm for females. There was statistically significant difference in Anterior Fontanelle size in neonates of different genders (p<0.001), mode of delivery (p<0.001) and duration of labour (p = 0.006). However, the size of Anterior Fontanelle was not significantly affected by the birth order, onset of labour and socio-demographic variables of the mother except occupation of the mother (p = 0.01). There was a significant positive correlation between the mean size of Anterior Fontanelle with birth weight (r = 0.11; p = 0.04) and head circumference (r = 0.17; p = 0.001). Conclusions At term, male neonates had significantly larger Anterior Fontanelle than female neonates and Anterior Fontanelle size has a direct relationship with birth weight and head circumference.

  • melanotic neuroectodermal tumour of infancy at the Anterior Fontanelle
    1999
    Co-Authors: Shunji Nishio, Takato Morioka, Nobuya Murakami, Masashi Fukui, T Inamitsu, Shinichiro Ishihara
    Abstract:

    We describe a 4-month-old girl presenting with a melanotic neuroectodermal tumour of infancy at the Anterior Fontanelle. According to the neuroimaging findings, this tumour was found to lie epidurally, adherent to the dura mater, with thickening of the adjacent frontal bone. The tumour was dense on CT, while MRI showed a major part of the tumour to be isointense with cerebral cortex on both T1- and T2-weighted images. The neuroimaging and clinical features are briefly discussed.
