Abstract: Children affected by premature fusion of the cranial sutures due to craniosynostosis can present with raised intracranial pressure and (turri)brachycephalic head shapes that require surgical treatment. Spring-assisted posterior vault expansion (SA-PVE) is the surgical technique… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/prs.0000000000008767
Abstract: Summary: Previous literature has documented craniometric changes of the bony calvaria, increases in intracranial volume, and resolution of Chiari malformations following posterior vault distraction osteogenesis. No studies have analyzed changes to the soft-tissue envelope after… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/scs.0000000000004473
Abstract: Background: Posterior vault distraction osteogenesis (PVDO) is believed to improve frontal contour in infants with syndromic craniosynostosis and turribrachycephaly. This study provides an objective craniometric analysis to determine how PVDO affects anterior cranial morphology. Methods:… read more here.
