Sagittal synostosis: pre- and postoperative 3-D CT reconstructions (3)

Preoperative (left) and postoperative (right) 3-D CT reconstructions. These vertex views shows barrel-staving in the occipital area after removal of 1 to 2 centimeters of bone to decrease cephalic length and stair-step osteotomy at mid-sagittal line to increase cephalic width.
