OBJECTIVE The sagittal suture is usually considered an external anatomical landmark, indicating the location of superior sinus (SSS) for surgical approaches. Children with unilateral coronal synostosis (UCS) often present important deviation suture. Because these patients undergo frontal reconstruction or even endoscope-assisted minimally invasive procedures, it imperative to know SSS. aim this investigation was study relationship between SSS and in children anterior plagiocephaly. METHODS...
