Abstract
Conclusions. - The morphometric analysis shows that the deformation of the skull secondary to the premature synostosis of the sagittal suture can be different. The adaptative defect of the metopic suture can be to explain this difference. This deformation can be harmonious, or with a retro-coronal constriction resulting in a bitemporal narrowing, or with a pre-lambdoid constriction resulting in an occipital chignon. These results conduce to qualify the surgical correction to adapt at the different shapes.
