b. Just lateral to the knee cap.

2. A mother brings her 2-month-old daughter in for an examination and says, My daughter
rolled over against the wall, and now I have noticed that she has this spot that is soft on
the top of her head. Is something terribly wrong? The nurses best response would be:
a. Perhaps that could be a result of your dietary intake during pregnancy.
b. Your baby may have craniosynostosis, a disease of the sutures of the brain.
c. That soft spot may be an indication of cretinism or congenital hypothyroidism.
d. That soft spot is normal, and actually allows for growth of the brain during the
first year of your babys life.
ANS: D
Membrane-covered soft spots allow for growth of the brain during the first year of
life. They gradually ossify; the triangular-shaped posterior fontanel is closed by 1
to 2 months, and the diamond-shaped anterior fontanel closes between 9 months
and 2 years.
