Abstract

Here the authors demonstrate open craniofacial reconstruction for the correction of craniosynostosis, using techniques refined by Dr. James T. Goodrich at Montefiore Medical Center. They present the operative management of a case of unilateral coronal synostosis in a 12-month-old child, who presented with right forehead prominence and calvarial asym-metry. The patient had an excellent correction of her head shape with an uneventful postoperative course. This video highlights the authors’ multidisciplinary approach to complete cranial vault remodeling, utilizing a Marchac bandeau con-struct and split calvarial graft mosaic technique.
