Abstract
- Normally the cranial bones are closed finally in early adulthood; thus, premature closure of one or more sutures of the skull results in a head deformity producing damaging effects to the brain and eyes. The authors presented a case of Crouzon's disease which was characterized by shallow orbit, exophthalmos, maxillary hypoplasia and a prominent jaw. And the literatures relating to this disease were briefly reviewed.
