Clinical evaluation of non-syndromic scaphocephaly surgically corrected with the procedure of total vertex craniectomy

The present investigation constitutes a retrospective evaluation of the outcome in children who received surgical correction of a scaphocephalic phenotype by median total vertex craniectomy. Between September 2009 and September 2015, a total of 35 infants with non-syndromic scaphocephaly were treated according to the same standardized operative technique of total vertex craniectomy by a single surgeon approach. At the time of surgery, the patients were between 3 and 12 months of age, with a median of 5 months.
