Spanish term or phrase: Prominencias parietales
"Prominencias parietales. Sobre una
curvatura que normalmente se encuentra
entre la oreja y el centro de la cabeza."

I suspect it is "Parietal eminences", but I'm not 100% sure. I have also found texts that mention "parietal protuberances".

parietal prominences


Explanation:
Newborn infants with wide cranial sutures and large anterior fontanels, but having normal head circumferences, were prospectively studied and compared with a group of normal controls. The study group with wide sutures was composed of two different groups--one with good calcification of the calvaria, fairly large anterior fontanels, and no Wormian bones; and another with distinct parietal prominences, very large anterior and posterior fontanels with prolonged patency, poor initial calcification of the calvaria, and Wormian bones. Normal head growth and physical and mental development were observed in all the infants studied.

Al parecer ambos nombres existen, pero no se refieren a una misma cosa. Estás traduciendo un término que seguramente fue traducido anteriormente del inglés y me resulta difícil creer que un médico tradujese "parietal eminence" como "prominencia parietal". Busqué fuentes que contuviesen ambos términos simultaneamente.
Encontré links sumamente interesantes:

Analizé ambos términos a fin de corroborar que "prominence" y "prominencia" pudiesen ser "false friends" entre inglés y español pero nada parece indicar tal situación.
