NO
We will follow patients who underwent resorbable plate assisted suturectomy for over 5 years postoperatively and evaluate intracranial volume and cranial morphology, bone regeneration and residual defects, and the presence and indications of reoperation. In syndromic cases, we will analyze midface growth and its implications for future reconstructive surgery.
Others
Craniosynostosis is a rare disorder that causes elevated intracranial pressure and craniofacial deformity, and conventional suturectomy is limited by early re-synostosis. At our institution, we temporarily cover the resected suture margins with resorbable plates to suppress re-synostosis and promote natural bone regeneration after resorption, and we will evaluate the clinical outcomes and efficacy of this approach.

This study is observational. The subjects are patients with craniosynostosis who have undergone resorbable-plate-assisted suturectomy performed at our institution.
If meaningful results are obtained during the course of the study, we may report those interim findings at academic conferences or in medical journals.
