If your baby's trigonocephaly is spotted at birth or in their early years, your consultant may recommend skull-reshaping surgery.
This can be carried out via endoscopic surgery, a minimally invasive form of surgery in which a neurosurgeon removes part of your baby's skull through a thin tube called an endoscope. Traditional reconstructive surgery can also help to unlock the bones and reshape your child's skull.
The length of recovery depends on the surgery and the age and health of your child. Most children need to stay in hospital for three to five days after cranial surgery.
If your child is diagnosed later in life with one or more developmental delays, we can create a personalised treatment plan to support them in other ways. Our tailored care for trigonocephaly includes a range of neurological, speech therapy, occupational therapy and sensory integration programmes.
