Yes, in infants.: Flat back of the head is called plagiocephaly. The most common cause by far is babies laying on their backs. "back to sleep" is the right thing to do as this clearly prevents sudden infant death syndrome. Usually the flat head will self resolve with less time spent on the back, or helmeting can be considered if the problem is severe.
