Fontanels, the soft spots on an infant's skull, are clinically significant as they allow for the flexibility of the skull during childbirth and accommodate brain growth in the early months of life. Their assessment can provide insights into the infant's hydration status, intracranial pressure, and overall health. Abnormalities in fontanel size, shape, or closure can indicate potential medical issues, such as dehydration, craniosynostosis, or other developmental disorders. Monitoring fontanels is thus essential for early detection of complications in pediatric care.
