Surgical treatment of trigonocephaly. Experience with 30 cases. 1986

P Dhellemmes, and P Pellerin, and J P Lejeune, and F Lepoutre

Trigonocephaly results from premature closure of the metopic suture. We report our experiences with 30 patients who underwent surgical treatment. In our opinion, this type of craniosynostosis also involves sphenoid bone dysplasia. For this reason, our surgical procedure includes turning the orbital ridge away from the midline, frontal vault remodeling, and a wide ostectomy of the pterional bone.

D005147	Facial Bones	The facial skeleton, consisting of bones situated between the cranial base and the mandibular region. While some consider the facial bones to comprise the hyoid (HYOID BONE), palatine (HARD PALATE), and zygomatic (ZYGOMA) bones, MANDIBLE, and MAXILLA, others include also the lacrimal and nasal bones, inferior nasal concha, and vomer but exclude the hyoid bone.
