Sagittal Synostectomy With Tension Band Sutures for Correction of Sagittal Craniosynostosis.

A modified sagittal craniectomy with tension band sutures to remodel the skull is effective in achieving immediate correction of sagittal craniosynostosis. The correction remains durable over long-term follow-up. Importantly, the technique can be performed with minimal blood loss and reduces transfusion risk, operative time, and overall morbidity compared with traditional open approaches while avoiding the need for helmet therapy necessitated by endoscopic approaches.
