Purpose"Secondary craniosynostosis" (SCS) refers to a loss of sutures after corrective vault reconstruction. There are no prior studies that comprehensively review SCS in various types of non-syndromic craniosynostosis. We assessed idiopathic and iatrogenic SCS using 3-dimensional computed tomography (3D CT). We also performed a systematic review to estimate the overall incidence of SCS in each craniosynostosis type, and to characterize its clinical features.Materials and MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the CT images of patients who underwent surgical correction of craniosynostosis for all types of craniosynostosis between August 1999 and December 2015. A literature search of the Medline and Ovid databases was conducted in October 2016 using the search term "secondary craniosynostosis."ResultsIn our series, iatrogenic SCS was observed in all patients who had manipulated normal patent sutures to variable extents. Three (17.6%) cases of idiopathic SCS developed on sagittal sutures, and were confirmed with a 12-month follow-up CT. In a pooled analysis of 10 articles, overall SCS developed in 123 of 1205 patients (10.2%). Iatrogenic SCS cases made up 87 of 1205 cases (7.2%), whereas 38 (3.1%) were idiopathic. Idiopathic SCS most commonly developed at the bi-coronal suture (n = 32, 84.2%), followed by the sagittal suture (n = 4, 10.5%) and uni-coronal suture (n = 1, 2.6%).ConclusionThis is the first review not only to describe SCS in all types of non-syndromic craniosynostosis, but also to classify SCS into iatrogenic and idiopathic types based on the underlying pathogenesis.
