Abstract
The article presents a study on the high prevalence of cranial asymmetry in infants with neonatal brachial plexus palsy (NBPP). Topics covered include the association of patient demographics, arm function, and NBPP-related factors to positional plagiocephaly and the need for parents and physicians to encourage infants to use their upper extremities to change position and lower the chance of cranial asymmetry.
