Overview
Craniosynostosis are cranial deformations due to the premature closure of one or more cranial sutures. These deformations affect approximately one in 2.500 births. In the vast majority of cases, craniosynostoses are isolated (non-syndromic) and their origin is not always known. On the other hand, 20% of these deformations are said to be syndromic.
Craniosynostosis has morphological (associated dysmorphism) and functional (growth conflict between the skull and the brain) repercussions. Ophthalmological disorders are frequent: refractive disorders, oculomotor disorders, optic nerve damage, sensory damage.
This study aims to describe the ophthalmological clinical characteristics associated with craniosynostosis in patients followed at the Amiens University Hospital. This is a retrospective study based on the analysis of patient records followed in our center.
