Morphologic Differences between Normocephalic and Scaphocephalic Sagittal Craniosynostosis
Rightward asymmetries of the linear and angle cranial base measurements existed in both index groups. Intracranial volume distribution lies anteriorly in patients with scaphocephaly but posteriorly in patients with normocephaly. These data show craniometric evidence that although normocephalic and scaphocephalic patients share the diagnosis of sagittal synostosis, they are morphometrically different from each other and from controls.
