Abstract

The effectiveness of the "floating forehead" operation for treating brachycephaly in infants has been assessed. All children who had undergone this procedure at the Hôpital des Enfants Malades between 1977 and 1984 were reviewed retrospectively by an independent observer. Particular attention was paid to the effects on cranial growth, facial growth and morphology.
