Craniostenosis, also craniosynostosis, is a congenital pathology characterized by premature fusion of the sutures of the skull. With this disease, the child’s skull is formed incorrectly, since the bones do not have time to grow. Craniosynostosis can be found anywhere in the skull, but the frontal, occipital, and mastoid regions are most commonly affected.
Craniostenosis can cause many problems, such as impaired vision, hearing, breathing, and can also lead to the development of hydrocephalus (water on the brain). These problems can cause disability and even death.
Treatment for craniostenosis depends on its extent and severity. In some cases, surgery may be required to release the fused bones. In other cases, treatment may be conservative, including the use of medications, physical therapy and other methods.
However, despite all the difficulties associated with craniostenosis, there are treatments that can help improve the quality of life for people with this condition. It is important to understand that each case is unique and requires an individual approach.
Overall, craniostenosis is a serious problem for people's health and life. However, thanks to modern treatment methods, many people with this disease can live full lives.
Craniosthenos
Craniosthenos is a disease in which restrictions in the movement of the skull develop. Possible fusion of the upper and lower jaws or a bilateral decrease in the space between the skulls. It usually affects children between 2 and 9 months of age, but sometimes cases occur among newborns. Basically, craniostenosis occurs due to genetic defects manifested by connective tissue abnormalities. Sometimes the syndrome occurs in children as a result of brain dysplasia. Like Silver-Pries syndrome, cranial stenosis ends in disintegration during surgery. Children with this syndrome often lag behind their peers in mental development. If
