Abstract:
:Both the safety and efficacy of the treatment of isolated craniofacial dysostosis (plagiocephaly) in infancy have been demonstrated. Opinions remain divided, however, as to the optimal type of procedure to be undertaken. In an attempt to answer this question, we have retrospectively evaluated a study population of 48 children operated on in infancy by either a unilateral or bilateral approach. Results of treatment at a minimal follow-up of 3 years were assessed based on preoperative and postoperative photographs and direct patient examination. Based on this retrospective comparison of the unilateral and bilateral approaches to the treatment of isolated craniofacial dysostosis, we conclude that (1) either approach as specifically outlined will give excellent results in the majority of patients, (2) there is no statistically significant difference in the results obtained by using either procedure, (3) in the majority of instances, less than ideal correction was manifested by contour irregularities evident in the temporal and/or lateral forehead region, and strict attention should be given to these areas in an attempt to further improve results, and (4) in those cases where significant protrusion is observed on the "normal side," a bilateral approach is preferable.
