The cognition of patients with sagittal synostosis and developmental or behavioral concerns in relation to surgical timing or technique
Of the 534 patients with SS, 99 had parents who voiced concerns about their child's development or behavior. The intellectual ability of patients with both SS and developmental or behavioral issues was slightly lower than the norm. Surgical technique and timing did not affect the cognitive profile.
