ABSTRACT
Craniosynostosis is a group of common congenital craniomaxillofacial deformities. Syndromic craniosynostosis is usually accompanied by increased intracranial pressure, craniocerebral growth restriction, craniofacial deformities and even chiari malformation. Traditional anterior or posterior skull reshaping has its drawbacks such as high surgical risk, high recurrence rate and unsatisfactory therapeutic efficacy, and so on. The operation technique of posterior cranial vault distraction is relatively simple. The treatment process is controllable, accurate and stable. It can largely expand the intracranial volume and improve the anterior and posterior skull configuration with a low risk of complications. To sum up, posterior cranial vault distraction osteogenesis can be a surgical procedure of choice when syndromic craniosynostosis is treated.
