The authors describe their own clinical observations of children with non-syndromic craniosynostosis. They note that knowledge of this pathology by local pediatricians and a comprehensive examination of the skeletal system, in particular, the skull of the newborn, contributes to the early diagnosis of craniosynostosis. Timely direction to genetic and neurosurgeon allows for early correction preventing undesirable effects of craniosynostosis.
