  1. 1. Dynamic skull reshaping for sagittal craniosynostosis

    Författare :José Guimarães-Ferreira; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Craniosynostosis; Sagittal synostosis; Plastic surgery; Craniofacial; surgery; Spring mediated cranioplasty; Modified pi-plasty; procedure; Roentgencephalometry.;

    Sammanfattning : Objectives: The present investigation was aimed at expanding the knowledge base regarding the skull morphology in sagittal craniosynostosis and at assessing the safety and efficacy of two dynamic cranioplasty procedures, the modified pi-plasty procedure and the spring-mediated cranioplasty. Methods: The patient population consisted of children with non-syndromic sagittal craniosynostosis. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Surgical Outcomes in Sagittal Craniosynostosis

    Författare :Jesper Unander-Scharin; Daniel Nowinski; Per Enblad; Marie-Lise van Veelen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The overarching aim of this thesis was to increase the understanding of patient and treatment related factors behind the variability in morphological outcomes seen in nonsyndromic sagittal craniosynostosis. There is a lack of knowledge regarding patient related predictors for the variability in outcomes, and consensus has yet to be reached regarding best practice with respect to surgical technique for the treatment of sagittal craniosynostosis.

  4. 4. Neuropsychological outcomes and health-related quality of life of children operated for nonsyndromic craniosynostosis

    Författare :Marizela Kljajic; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; nonsyndromic craniosynostosis; neuropsychological functioning; adaptive behavior skills; health-related quality of life;

    Sammanfattning : The primary aim of this thesis was to assess the intelligence quotient, attention function, adaptive behavior skills, and health-related quality of life of children operated for nonsyndromic craniosynostosis. The secondary aim was to evaluate whether surgical methods for treating sagittal synostosis were related to the outcomes. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Dynamic principles in craniofacial surgery. Expander elements in craniofacial surgery

    Författare :Fredrik Gewalli; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Scaphocephaly; Brachycephaly; Dynamic cranioplasty; Pi-procedure; DCB; Expander elements; Distraction; Mental development; ICP; Cephalometry; Cephalic index;

    Sammanfattning : Lannelongue & Lane described strip removal of ossified skull sutures in craniosynostosis in the 1890s. More complex osteotomies with bone grafting were developed during the 1960s. Dynamic techniques, utilizing force to direct the growing brain for skull reshaping was introduced by Jane 1978 with the p-plasty for sagittal synostosis. LÄS MER
