Abstract
Traditional teaching is that the gold standard for diagnosing craniosynostosis is a head CT. In most craniofacial centers, the pre-operative workup for suspected craniosynostosis involves a head CT scan either by the referring pediatrician or the craniofacial team. Recent literature has demonstrated the ability to accurately diagnose craniosynostosis without preoperative head CT (Cerovac et al, 2002; Schweitzer et al, 2012). The purpose of this study was to investigate the benefits of preoperative CT scans in the diagnosis and treatment of nonsyndromic single-suture craniosynostosis.
