Your child’s health is your top priority. It’s ours too.

University Health System is among the nation’s leading healthcare centers for diagnosing, treating, and developing advanced treatment methods to provide unmatched, quality care for infants with craniosynostosis.

Our Craniosynostosis Treatment

Our approach decreases complications, surgical trauma, and need for transfusions during surgery, producing exceptional results with less overall risk to your baby. In our procedure, the prematurely closed suture is released, allowing the rapidly growing brain to remodel the skull and face to a normal shape. If there's no underlying brain abnormality, the surgery allows your baby’s brain adequate space to grow and develop.
