ABSTRACT
Background: Single suture craniosynostosis is the premature fusion of one or more
cranial sutures. It may lead to structural and functional brain abnormalities. The
prevalence of this condition has not been fully described in Mexico.
Objective: To know the number of cases of the different types of single suture
craniosynotosis at “La Raza” General Hospital through a 7 years period.
Methods: Retrospective data from surgical craniosynostosis patients were consulted
through the period of 2010-2016 from the Neurosurgery Department at “La Raza”
General Hospital.
Results: Craniosynostosis was most frequent in male infants (63%). Sagittal synostosis
was the most frequent, followed by unicoronal synostosis, metopic synostosis and
brachycephaly. Posterior plagiocephaly and multisutural craniosynostosis had the
same number of cases and were the least common.
Conclusion: These findings are similar to international reports in which sagittal is the
most frequent synostosis. However, our findings are different from another Mexican
report which mentioned plagiocephaly as the most common type of craniosynostosis.
