Purpose: Craniofacial surgery has come full circle from the total cranial vault remodeling (CVR) to less invasive surgical interventions including distraction osteogenesis. Method: This is a two part IRB approved prospective study. The basic science portion consisted of the animal trial with New Zealand Rabbits to confirm the safety and efficacy of the springs. The clinical part consisted of 36 children with scaphocephaly confirmed clinically and radiographically. All study patients were treated with a 1 cm strip craniectomy and placement of 2 internal cranial springs at a mean age of 4 months and mean duration of 4 months. Results: All patients enrolled in the clinical study successful underwent placement and removal of the cranial springs with no major morbidity or mortality. Patients at the time of this report had a mean follow up of 30 months. Normalization of the cephalic index and three dimension computerized scanning confirmed the efficacy of this treatment modality. Conclusions: The use of internal cranial springs in conjunction with sagittal strip craniectomy has been shown to be both safe and effective for the treatment of Scaphocephaly. The clinical study is underway to incorporate the absorbable foot plates to hold the springs in place and facilitate removal.
