The surgical correction of coronal and metopic craniosynostoses

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1983
✓ Procedures for relief of coronal synostosis and metopic synostosis have resulted in some undesirable sequelae. The authors present combined neurological and plastic surgical modifications to prevent additional synostoses, forehead ridging, and lateral orbital wall step-off. They recommend bifrontal craniotomy with lateral wall osteotomy into the body

An Epidemiological Study of Nonsyndromal Craniosynostoses

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2011
To compare our data with recent studies that have suggested a change in the distribution of the forms of nonsyndromal synostosis in the clinical population, we conducted a retrospective analysis of the diagnoses of children with isolated synostosis examined at a large craniofacial center between 1987 and 2009.

External craniofacial osteodistraction in complex craniosynostoses

Child's Nervous System, 2012
The use of distraction osteogenesis is the first option in the treatment of craniofacial hypoplasia. Both internal craniofacial distractor devices (ICDD) and external craniofacial distractor devices (ECDD) can improve visual and respiratory functions in patients with craniofacial synostosis significantly.

Upper airway obstruction in the syndromal craniosynostoses

British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1993
This series of consecutive cases details the prevalence and management of upper airway obstruction in the syndromal craniosynostoses (Crouzon, Apert and Pfeiffer syndromes). Upper airway obstruction presents more frequently in Crouzon and Pfeiffer syndrome when presenting early and during the intermediate years.

Functional treatment of craniosynostoses during childhood

British Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 1998
The aim of this article was to present a treatment strategy for complex craniosynostoses, such as Apert syndrome and Crouzon's disease, based on the author's experience of over 16 years. The most favourable results of primary decompression have been achieved by the radical osteoclastic procedure described by Powiertowski. Subsequent frontal advancement

[Forehead in craniosynostoses].

Annales de chirurgie plastique et esthetique
The forehead is the cranial part of the forehead, and represents an important component of facial esthetics. The deformations linked to craniosynostoses are characterized by modifications in height, width, and angulation. Their surgical correction during childhood is based on well-established techniques of remodeling using resorbable osteosynthesis ...

[Spiral CT evaluation of the craniosynostoses].

Journal of neuroradiology = Journal de neuroradiologie, 2000
Craniosynostoses are defined as the premature closure of one or more sutures of the cranial bones. The resulting craniofacial deformities may be associated with neurologic complications owing to the disproportion between the growing brain and the limited content of the intracranial cavity. Plain skull radiographs are often contributive to the diagnosis.
