I had surgery for craniosynostosis when i was a newborn. what are the side effects after a craniosynostosis surgery? long term?

Craniosynostosis : Physicians have anecdotally reported that children with simple craniosynostosis often seem to have a higher proportion of learning disabilities and cognitive problems than their non affected peers. A study from yale found that 50% of a craniosynostosis population had a reading and/or spelling learning disability despite normal intelligence.

Probably none: There will of course be some scars on your head from the operation, but there should be no long term effects. If you have any specific concerns talk to your physician.

Craniosynostosis: Headaches are likely the most common late term symptom. Also a relapse of the surgery can lead to a return to the shape of the head before the surgery.
