A member asked:
My 2 yr old daughter has been diagnosed with craniosysnostosis(multiple fusions).no obvious deformity is seen on her face..but ct shows fused sutures?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Complicated: If there is no outward deformity in the face, or the skull, then the ct may be incorrect. In a 2 year old with unrepaired craniosynostosis, there is almost always a problem seen. You should see a craniofacial team in your area. You can find one through the cleft palate foundation at cleftline.Org.
