The premature fusion of the metopic suture may be associated with the presence of emissary veins (EV) and abnormally large pericerebral cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) spaces which suggest an associated focal disturbance in CSF dynamics. The incidence of such findings and their potential significance in terms of management of the disease have not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study is to investigate whether these phenomena identify specific subtypes of trigonocephaly. In such a direction, we evaluated the volume of the pericerebral CSF spaces and their relationship to the morphology ("Ω," "V," or flat type) of the prematurely fused metopic suture and to the value of the interfrontal angle value on the grounds of computed tomographic (CT) scan examinations. The preoperative brain CT scans of 74 children (52 boys, 22 girls) with trigonocephaly who had undergone fronto-orbital remodeling were evaluated. The volume of the pericerebral CSF spaces and the value of the interfrontal angle were calculated. The type of intracranial notch was studied and classified according to its shape on the preoperative CT scan: a groove "Ω," a ridge/"V" ridge or absent when flat and evidence of emissary veins related to the abnormally fused suture. Preoperatively, an endocranial metopic groove or ridge was seen in 70% of the children. Emissary veins were identified in 34 of 74 patients (45%), at a mean distance of 2.04 cm (1.18-2.94 cm) from the nasion. The presence of large pericerebral CSF spaces significantly correlated with the presence of EV (p < 0.05), with the "Ω" type (p < 0.05) and with interfrontal angles under 134° (p < 0.005). Metopic suture early fusion shows an association between EV, pericerebral CSF spaces, and the "Ω" groove appearance of the suture. This association identifies a specific subgroup in which the presence of emissary veins and large pericerebral CSF spaces is an indicator of local venous hypertension due to the sagittal sinus constriction within an osseous groove created by the abnormal suture fusion process. The implications for the surgical management and long-term results as compared to trigonocephalic children with small or absent normal peripheral spaces and EV are still to be determined.
