RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To discuss the early surgical treatment of fronto-orbital retrusion in craniosynostosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Operative techniques including "C" fronto-orbital osteotomies and advancement, frontal radially oriented osteotomies and remoulding were performed to correct the fronto-orbital retrusion. Ten patients aged from 6-9 months were included. There were two metopic synostosis, three unilateral coronal synostosis, three bilateral coronal synostosis, one Apert syndromic synostosis and one Crouzon syndromic synostosis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Fronto-orbital deformities of all patients were corrected. There were no complications happened in these patients. The post-operation results were kept well for 3-11 months follow-up in 8 cases.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Fronto-orbital osteotomies and advancement and frontal reshaping were effective to correct fronto-orbital retrusion in craniosynostosis.</p>
