- Brachycephaly, this deformity usually flattens the entire back of the skull.
- Scaphocephaly, a fairly common deformity in premature infants that results in a tall, narrow skull.
- Craniosynostosis, cranial deformities due to poor closure of a cranial suture.
- Other cranial deformities caused by disease, tumors or trauma.

other variants.
