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.
