Abstract

Craniosynostosis and its associated abnormalities can pose unique challenges to surgeons caring for these patients. Cephalohematomas, although rare, add to the complexities of managing a patient with craniosynostosis. Here, we present the case of a 4-month-old male infant with concurrent sagittal craniosynostosis and a calcified cephalohematoma who underwent an endoscopic-assisted strip craniectomy and management of the hematoma with good results.
