Social and medical factors may explain cognitive impact of delayed craniosynostosis surgery
For infants with the skull deformity craniosynostosis, head reshaping surgery after age 12 months has long been linked to impaired cognitive and language development. Now a new study suggests that the difference in developmental outcomes may reflect a range of other patient characteristics and clinical factors affecting age at surgery, reports the April issue of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery®, the official medical journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). The journal is published in the Lippincott portfolio by Wolters Kluwer.
Minimally invasive surgery provides new option to guide skull shape in infants with complex craniosynostosis
An innovative, minimally-invasive surgical approach can improve head shape while enabling normal brain development in infants with complex types of the skull deformity craniosynostosis, reports a paper in The Journal of Craniofacial Surgery. The journal, under the guidance of Editor-in-Chief Mutaz B. Habal, MD, is published in the Lippincott portfolio by Wolters Kluwer.
