Summary
The term craniosynostosis refers to a developmental craniofacial anomaly that originates as a result of the premature closure of one or more cranial sutures. This condition subsequently leads to a deformity of the skull, depending on the suture that was affected by the premature fusion, and can also cause a restriction in the physiological development of the brain. This can be manifested by a chronic slight increase in intracranial pressure, headaches, but also a delay in psychomotor development, speech development disorders and, in school age, reduced intellectual performance and difficulties in social interaction. In this article, we describe natural development of cranial sutures, but also discuss their premature closure, offer an overview of the basic types of craniosynostosis, the possibilities of diagnostics and treatment. We also present the case patient with metopic suture synostosis who underwent surgical treatment at our department.
