Endoscopically assisted correction of sagittal craniosynostosis.
Craniosynostosis is premature fusion of one or more of the cranial sutures of an infant's skull. Several sutures may be fused, alone or in combination. The endoscopically assisted approach to correcting craniosynostosis is an alternative to more traditional techniques, such as open-strip craniectomy and the Pi procedure for infants younger than four months of age and the cranial vault remodelin...
متن کاملNew scaphocephaly severity indices of sagittal craniosynostosis: a comparative study with cranial index quantifications.
OBJECTIVE To describe a novel set of scaphocephaly severity indices (SSIs) for predicting and quantifying head- and skull-shape deformity in children diagnosed with isolated sagittal synostosis (ISS) and compare their sensitivity and specificity with those of the traditional cranial index (CI). METHODS Computed tomography head scans were obtained from 60 patients diagnosed with ISS and 41 age...
متن کاملOperative technique for calvarial reconstruction of sagittal craniosynostosis.
AIM The purpose of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy of the developed by the authors surgical technique in patients with a radiographically confirmed diagnosis of sagittal craniosynostosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS 34 children with scaphocephaly underwent surgical treatment with the authors' operative technique. Quantitative assessments of the operative results, based on the...
متن کاملGenetic and environmental risk factors for sagittal craniosynostosis.
The authors investigated whether genetic and environmental factors influence risk for sagittal craniosynostosis. Cases were ascertained from craniofacial clinics in the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan region. Controls were recruited from the Johns Hopkins newborn nursery and a large pediatric practice in Baltimore County. Forty-two probands with isolated, nonsyndromic sagittal craniosynostosi...
متن کاملFluctuating asymmetry and developmental instability in sagittal craniosynostosis.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether premature sagittal craniosynostosis is associated with developmental instability in the skull by analyzing fluctuating asymmetry in skull shape. DESIGN Cranial shape was quantified by collecting coordinate data from landmarks located on three-dimensional reconstructions of preoperative computed tomography (CT) images of 22 children with sagittal craniosynostosis...
