Secondary craniofacial management following initial correction of nonsyndromic craniosynostosis.
Marked technical improvements in the surgical management of craniosynostosis have come hand-in-hand with refinements in anesthesia, intensive care, and radiographic image analysis. At the beginning of the second century of the care of these patients, we now have a variety of sophisticated options that represent safer, more physiologically sound and aesthetically more pleasing options for the correction of secondary problems in craniosynostosis.
