Three-dimensional cranial expansion using distraction osteogenesis for oxycephaly.
J Craniofac Surg. 2003 Jan; 14(1):29-36.JC

Abstract

Oxycephaly is associated with raised intracranial pressure as a result of the fusion of multiple cranial sutures. We have performed an effective and less invasive cranial expansion by means of three-dimensional cranial distraction for the treatment of oxycephaly with suspicion of increased intracranial pressure. We describe two oxycephaly cases and the surgical technique of three-dimensional cranial expansion using distraction osteogenesis.
