摘要
Seventy-two patients who presented with nonsyndromic coronal craniosynostosis were treated using endoscopic-assisted techniques. Release of the stenosed suture was accomplished with the creation of a 5-mm osteotomy extending from the anterior fontanelle to the pterion. All patients tolerated the procedure well with no mortalities, morbidities, or need for blood transfusions. Correction of the vertical dystopia, nasal deviation, and orbital resection was accomplished in most cases. This approach offers a viable alternative for the early treatment of coronal craniosynostosis.
