Hi Marci.... Thanx for your reply and it was exactly what I wanted to know..Though already has or is likely to get because of his cleft most of the things on the list so I guess a bit like your daughter and her tubes I would never know one way or another whether or not it was the plagio or jst something that would have been anyway causing these things..

But it is more information to take into account if it does come to a question of surgery

hope you and yours had a wonderfull easter also

thanx

Re: thanx for the welcome )

Rae,Hope the holidays were good for you and your family.I actually understood exactly what you were saying. There are really two school of thoughts on plagio - one that says it is only cosmetic and the other that says that untreated plagio can lead to other medical complications. My neuro was of the school of thought that untreated plagio can lead to other complications such as TMJ, vision problems, speech and language delays, developmental delays, migraines, increased incidents of ear infections and seizures. I must stress that he only believes that it COULD lead to some of these issues, not that it will. 's condition was severe and we started helmet therapy at 9 months old. We did not get 100% correction and we have not noticed any of the issues listed above except the ear infections and I really couldn't say if that is related or not. (She has tubes now and is doing GREAT)OK, now I'm rabbling. I hope I got somewhere at least near what you were looking for! Best wishes to you and your family!Marci (Mom to )OklahomaFor more plagio info
