Surgical treatment of metopic synostosis.
Metopic synostosis is characterized by keel-shaped forehead (trigonocephaly), prominent midline ridge of the forehead, bitemporal narrowing, bilateral retrusion of supraorbits, egg-shaped orbits, low nasal dorsum, and reduced volume of the anterior cranial fossa. The mainstay treatment is early surgical intervention before the age of 12 months, which usually consists of bifrontal craniotomy wit...
متن کاملFacial twist (asymmetry) in isolated unilateral coronal synostosis: does premature facial suture fusion play a role?
BACKGROUND Unilateral coronal synostosis (UCS) often causes notable facial twist in affected patients. This condition occurs when the midface deviates toward the synostotic side, and the lower face deviates away from the synostotic side. The exact underlying mechanism for this phenomenon remains unclear. It has been proposed that premature fusion of facial sutures may play a role in the formati...
متن کاملHypertropia associated with superolateral translation of the superior rectus muscle pulley in unilateral coronal synostosis.
OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanisms underlying the hypertropia associated with unilateral coronal synostosis. METHODS In 13 patients with unilateral coronal synostosis, we measured gaze-dependent binocular alignment before and after strabismus surgery, assessed the superior rectus muscle (SRM) pulley using computed tomography, and simulated posterior displacement of the trochlea and superolat...
متن کاملPremature closure of the frontozygomatic suture: unusual frontoorbital dysplasia mimicking unilateral coronal synostosis.
Fig. 1.-Case 1. Skull films. A, Frontal projection. Left orbit is small and round , with normally oriented orbital roof and lesser wing of sphenoid . Lateral wall of left orbit is broad and decreased in height; frontozygomatic suture is obliterated. B, Submentovertical projection. Left frontal area is depressed. Lateral wall of left orbit is short and directed more lateral than normal. There is...
متن کاملAbstract P23: Changes in Skull Dysmorphology with Age in Unilateral Coronal Synostosis
PURPOSE: While modern research on coronal craniosynostosis has vastly widened our breadth of knowledge regarding treatment of the condition, the mechanism underlying the development of the deformity remains uncovered and largely uninvestigated. This study evaluates midface and skull base development in nonsyndromic unilateral coronal synostosis (UCS), focusing on zygomatic and cranial base anat...
