title: A new surgical approach to the treatment of coronal synostosis.
abstract: The authors described a surgical technique for the treatment of unilateral coronal synstosis, which they have carried out successfully in 16 children. Frontal craniotomy, removal of the lesser wing of the sphenoid, orbital unroofing, and removal of the entire orbital rim are recommended as essential elements of carnio-orbital reconstruction in the treatment of plagiocephaly.
