A member asked:
Can you tell me where i can find a video of how the surgury procedure is done on a child with craniosynostosis also known as synostosis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Video: If you go to www.Stlouischildrens.Org and search craniosynostosis they have a really nice video. Not all surgeries are the same but this is a good example.
