Abstract
Frontofacial surgery, encompassing the monobloc with or without facial bipartition and the box osteotomy, can treat the frontal bone and midface simultaneously, providing comprehensive improvement in facial balance. Complex pediatric patients with genetic syndromes and craniosynostosis are most optimized by an interdisciplinary team of surgeons, pediatricians, geneticists, speech pathologists, audiologists, dietitians, pediatric dentists, orthodontists, and psychosocial support staff to manage the myriad of challenges and complications throughout early childhood and beyond. Despite early treatment of the anterior and posterior cranial vault, these patients frequently have resultant frontal and/or midface hypoplasia and orbital abnormalities that are best managed with simultaneous surgical treatment.
