Abstract

Craniosynostosis is a condition characterised by the premature fusion of one or more of the cranial sutures. The aim of the study was to identify, by multidetector computed tomography (CT), the involvement of vault sutures as well as of the skull base sutures (named "minor" sutures). The latter ones are involved in development of craniofacial and skull base deformities.
