Premature fusion of the metopic suture results in a type of craniosynostosis known as trigonocephaly. The treatment of trigonocephaly is surgical and is likely to remain so. Surgical methods and techniques for correction of craniosynostosis-related skull deformities have evolved, and a single best procedure is yet to be presented.
