When your child is born with craniosynostosis, his or her skull's bones will fuse together too soon, preventing the normal development of brain structures. These sutures usually heal by the time a child is two to three years old. The fissures in your baby's skull may close before or shortly after birth if he or she has craniosynostosis. However, craniosynostosis isn't the only health issue young children may face. These symptoms are associated with the genetic version of the disease and include epileptic fits, blindness, and a general lack of mental acuity.
The craniosynostosis spectrum is quite broad. Sagittal
synostosis, also referred to as scaphocephaly, is by far the most prevalent.
This variation involves the premature closure of the suture that separates the
bones at the top of the cranial remolding helmet in New York head, which might give your child a
broad forehead and a long, narrow skull shape evocative of a boat. The skull
has a distinctive shape, hence it was given the moniker "boat head"
(scaphocephaly).
When it comes to craniosynostosis, frontal plagiocephaly is
the second most prevalent occurrence. In this disorder, the cleft between your
child's ears on his or her skull closes before it should. It's more frequent in
girls and can be mistaken for positional plagiocephaly or brachycephaly, both
of which are more common in infant boys. Having the metopic suture, in the middle
of the forehead, close too soon causes metopic synostosis, which is more common
in boys. If a child's brain has stopped growing, he or she may have
craniosynostosis; if the brain is still craniosynostosis
