Abstract
Eighteen children with anterior craniosynostosis were treated prior to 8 months of age (average 4.5 months) with two main techniques. Strip craniectomies of both coronal sutures extending downwards along the lateral walls of the orbits beyond the sphenozygomatic sutures were performed in 6 children with bilateral coronal synostosis alone. Advancement of the supraorbital ridge with unroofing of the orbit and asportation of its lateral wall was carried out in the remaining 12 children (3 cases with Apert's syndrome; 1 case with Cronzon's syndrome; 2 cases of plagiocephaly; 6 cases of trigonocephaly).
