Abstract
Craniosynostosis is a congenital defect of unknown cause in which one or more sutures of the baby's head close partially or totally earlier than normal, it has an incidence of 1 in 1,000 to 3,000 live births, with higher prevalence in males. The evolution of this disease is different in each case and can be mild or severe. They present symptoms such as: irritability or inconsolable crying and very little activity. As your skull grows, it can become more and more deformed and give different neurological symptoms. It may be due to certain genetic syndromes such as Apert, Pfieffer or Croizon syndrome affecting the development of the baby's skull. We present a case of a newborn with this rare pathology.
