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.
This study demonstrates the inadequacy with which radiographic assessments evaluate shoulder height asymmetry and highlights the use of 3D surface topography measurements.
Using 3dMD, we introduced a method for calculating volumetric facial disparities, improving on existing approaches and providing insights into the palsy side’s impact.

We enrolled 33 patients, comprising 24 men and 9 women, who were affected by cutaneous neoplasm on the nose and underwent excision followed by reconstruction with a flap. For each patient, we performed facial scans before and after surgery.
We collected and assessed 3dMDface images of 115 consecutive patients who underwent primary repair between 2017 and 2019. 3dMD images were taken preoperatively, immediately postoperatively and at a first and second follow-up interval, occurring at an average year of 0.6 and 5.3 years, respectively.
SHAPE reads in a patient’s 3D photogram, automatically places a set of craniofacial landmarks, allows for their manual confirmation and correction, and automatically computes both a series of standard clinical craniofacial measurements and machine learning-based metrics of head development prior to building an analysis report for upload to the patient’s electronic medical record.
Compared to the sole use of laser, the combination of fractional carbon dioxide laser and rhEGF does not significantly enhance scar therapeutic effects. However, it does shorten the recovery period after laser treatment and improves the pore appearance.
