Bilateral coronal synostosis (Brachycephaly)

Premature closure of both coronal sutures leads to brachycephaly which has the following characteristics:

• Shortening of the head in the anterior-posterior dimension.
• Transverse widening of the head
• Vertical elongation of the head
• Shortening of the anterior cranial base
• Retrusive orbital rims
• Protuberance of the superior frontal and squamous temporal bones
