Craneosinostosis sindrómica: características craneodentofaciales, tratamiento ortodóntico-quirúrgico y factores asociados a tipos de síndrome

Describe the craniodentofacial characteristics, orthodontic-surgical treatments and establish an association between the syndrome types present in patients with syndromic craniosynostosis (SC). Material and methods: Retros-pective study of medical and orthodontic records of patients with SC. Data was collected on a specific form and subjected to descriptive statistical analysis to observe the distribution of frequencies and chi-square test with level of significance of 5% was used to associate syndrome and the types of variables. Results: Crouzon syndrome was the predominant type (59.2%) and brachycephalia was the most prevalent type of craniosynostosis (63.6%). There was a significant association between the variables brachycephaly (p=0.014), presence of cleft palate (p=0.043), posterior cross bite (p=0.013), distrac-tion osteogenesis performed by intermaxillary elastics (p= 0.030), Erich bar (p= 0.007) and extraction (p=0.041) and the syndromes studied. Conclusion: Patients with SC often have craniodentofaciais changes and some variables had signifi-cant associations in relation to the types of syndromes
