RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Surgical correction of unicoronal craniosynostosis (UCS) is highly complex due to its asymmetric appearance. Although fronto-orbital advancement (FOA) is a versatile technique for craniosynostosis correction, harmonization of the orbital bandeau in UCS is difficult to predict. This study evaluates the biomechanics of the orbital bandeau using different patterns and varying characteristics of inner cortical bone layer osteotomies in a finite element (FE) analysis. METHOD: An FE model was created using the computed tomography (CT) scan of a 6.5-month-old male infant with a right-sided UCS. The unaffected side of the orbital bandeau was virtually mirrored, and anatomical correction of the orbital bandeau was simulated. Different combinations of osteotomy patterns, numbers, depths, and widths were examined (n = 48) and compared to an uncut model. RESULTS: Reaction forces and maximum stress values differed significantly (p < 0.01) among osteotomy patterns and between each osteotomy characteristic. Regardless of the osteotomy pattern, higher numbers of osteotomies significantly (p < 0.05) correlated with reductions in reaction force and maximum stress. An X-shaped configuration with three osteotomies deep and wide to the bone was biomechanically the most favorable model. CONCLUSION: Inner cortical bone layer osteotomy might be an effective modification to the conventional FOA approach in terms of predictable shaping of the orbital bandeau.
