Abstract EN
Craniosynostoses is defined as a condition of premature fusion in one or more cranial sutures leading to a number of significant complications, mainly raised intracranial pressure which can itself cause other neurodevelopmental complications.
Copper beaten skull appearance is a well-known presentation of craniosynostoses made by the strong impression of the brain’s gyri on the inner layer of the skull.
It may also represent an increase in ICP.
We report a 1-month-old infant with the diagnosis of craniosynostoses, confirmed by conventional radiologic studies and a three dimensional CT scan, presenting as copper beaten skull appearance.
After diagnosis, the patient underwent a successful neurosurgical intervention
