Familiarity with CNS anomalies associated with Apert syndrome is important to both clinicians and radiologist as it impacts on management and prognostication. Cognitive development of patients has been linked to associated CNS anomalies, timing of surgery and social aspects. These associated anomalies can be broadly classified into (1) those that are primary malformations and (2) those that occur secondary to osseous deformity/malformation, as illustrated in our review paper.
