Fifty-eight well Black infants between the ages of 10 and 15 weeks were examined for the presence of craniotabes and investigated for the presence of vitamin D deficiency and rickets. Thirty-five infants were found to have craniotabes and 5 of these had radiological evidence of rickets. ⋯ The majority of infants with craniotabes had normal biochemical values. Craniotabes is a common finding in 3-month-old infants and is of no help in diagnosing rickets in this age group.
