2023年8月4日 · Scaphocephaly (also known as dolichocephaly) is the most common form of craniosynostosis, where premature closure of the sagittal suture results in an impediment to the lateral growth of the skull while anteroposterior growth continues, producing a classic elongated, yet narrow, skull.

2024年12月20日 · The sagittal suture is most commonly involved (≈50%), where the lateral growth of the skull is arrested while anteroposterior growth continues, producing a narrowly elongated skull known as scaphocephaly (meaning boat-shaped) or dolichocephaly (from the ancient Greek for long, δολιχός: dolichos).

Scaphocephaly occurs when the sagittal suture closes prematurely, which inhibits lateral skull growth but allows for anteroposterior growth. This leads to a narrow and elongated cranium.

The sagittal suture is most commonly involved, where lateral growth of the skull is arrested while anteroposterior growth continues, producing a narrow elongated skull known as scaphocephaly (meaning boat-shaped) or dolichocephaly. Causes are primary, or secondary to certain hematologic disorders, metabolic disorders, bone dysplasias and syndromes.

Scaphocephaly (also known as dolichocephaly) is the most common form of craniosynostosis where premature closure of the sagittal suture.

Scaphocephaly describes a narrow and long skull shape due to craniosynostosis of the sagittal suture, It is the most common suture to fuse early and generally requires surgical intervention to resolve.

CT confirms features consistent with scaphocephaly and pachycephaly. A classical appearance of an elongated and narrow skull is best appreciated on the 3D reformats.
