Types of craniosynostosis

Nonsyndromic Craniosynostosis

Single suture craniosynostosis

Pathology

  • Bone growth primarily perpendicular to & occurring at suture lines; premature fusion → abnormal growth

Classification of single suture craniosynostosis

MC suture: sagittal > unilateral coronal > bilateral coronal > metopic > lambdoid

Syndromic craniosynostosis
