From 1977 to 1996, 210 patients suffering from scaphocephaly, have been operated on in our institutions. The surgical technique depended on the patients age. Single wide sagittal synostectomy was performed in 155 babies aged less than 3 months, obtaining good cosmetic results. Patients older than 3 months needed more complex and aggressive procedures to achieve similar results. The conclusions is that sagittal suturectomy is the proper treatment in younger patients under 3 months of age, and that a greater effort must be made to diagnose and treat these patients early.
