Several surgical techniques have been described for correction of scaphocephaly. Recent advances in the field of craniofacial surgery have allowed more extensive operative procedures for the treatment of cranial vault anomalies. In general the aim of surgical treatment is to prevent early refusion of the parietal bones after the sagittal craniectomy associated with the widening of the biparietal diameter. In children older than 6 months these procedures may result unsatisfactory providing only a partial correction of the malformation. Therefore operative techniques of total cranial vault reshaping are reported in the literature.
