hi aezel,
welcome to hcm
its a condition where the head is longer than would be expected and relative to the width of the head its long.there is increased occipitofrontal diameter
it resulting from fusion of the sagittal suture.it can be corrected surgically
it can be physiologic variant seen in breech presentation also.so if your baby is on breech presentation you may relax.
take care
