Ocular Characteristics in Patients With Craniosynostosis

Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens

Summary

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 most cases, craniosynostoses are isolated with unknown (non syndrome). On the other hand, 20% of these deformations are associated with other concentration (syndrome). 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 retrospective study aims to describe the ocular clinical characteristics associated with craniosynostosis in patients followed at the Amiens University Hospital.
