Background:

Craniosynostosis is the premature closure of

calvarial sutures. Nearly affect 0.4 of 1000 persons. There is

a chance of increased intracranial pressure with one suture

synostosis and the risk increased when multiple suture

is involved. So early diagnosis is crucial to help in early

management to avoid expected secondary neural insult.

Aim:

to get an early and precise method for diagnosis of

craniosynostosis and so early and rapid treatment with

prevention of secondary neural insult.

Methodology:

This is a retrospective study of 3D CT volume

rendering technique of thirty patients, diagnosed as non-

syndromic primary craniosynostosis Ectocranial skull suture

closure grading system applied to 3D skull volume rendering

technique of the studied group as it stimulate real time one.

By this mean together with other clinical evidence early and

precise diagnosis of craniosynostosis can be elicited.

Results:

The studied group are 30 patients were operated

by early suture release surgery endoscopic assisted

suturectomy in neurosurgery department in Shebin Elkom

Teaching hospital (2011-2016). 16 females 14 males

all have primary craniosynostosis. 9 Brachycephaly,7

scaphocephally,4 anterior plagiocephaly,4 trigonocephaly,2

posterior plagiocephaly and 4 oxycephaly. Of all patients 38

sutures was affected. After application of proposed grading

10 sutures G1, 16 sutures G2 and 12 sutures G3.

Conclusion:

Application of ectocranial skull suture closure

grading system to 3D skull in early cases of primary

craniosynostosis will help in precise diagnosis and surgical

decision, as it demonstrate the degree of affected suture

from single bony bridge that restrict or arrest suture growth

in mild cases to completely obliterated one.
