This case underscores the need to individualize craniosynostosis treatment strategies for syndromic patients with limited physiologic reserve.
The model outperformed existing methods in patients with craniosynostosis and normative subjects. And the predictions generated by our model could be used to improve the accuracy of surgical planning.
This study analysed 88 integrated head-ear dimensions from 200 Koreans using 3dMDhead scanning, casting, and template registration techniques.
A scanner tool can digitally map an individual’s body whilst sat in a specifically designed planning room which is sophisticated enough to scan moving babies.
A retrospective review was conducted on patients with ULC who underwent posterior cranial vault remodeling with switch cranioplasty from both centers. All patients who underwent posterior cranial vault remodeling with occipital switch cranioplasty and had three-dimensional (3D) images obtained pre-operatively and around 2 years post-operatively were included.
3dMDhead images were obtained preoperatively and postoperatively at 3 weeks, 3 months, 1 year, and 2 years. Head circumference, cephalic index, scaphocephalic index (SCI), frontal bossing index (FBI), occipital bullet index (OBI), and vertex narrowing index (VNI) were measured automatically using the 3dMDvultus Craniometrics Calculator.
An objective plagiocephaly head-shape assessment system aligning with physician-made clinical diagnoses.
These findings may offer further insight to clinicians, educators, and caregivers into the social challenges faced by cleft individuals.
408 patients born between 1991 and 2019, with diagnosed non-syndromic sagittal synostosis, whom underwent FBR, ESC, or SAC in Erasmus MC Sophia Children’s Hospital, and had at least one post-operative 3dMDhead photogrammetry image taken before the age of six, were considered for this study.
