Various Types of Skull Deformities

Positional Plagiocephaly

This common condition, often resulting from prolonged pressure on one part of the head, leads to a flattened appearance. Dr. Rao employs techniques such as cranial molding helmets or surgery to correct the skull shape and ensure symmetrical development.

Brachycephaly

Characterized by a short, broad head shape, brachycephaly can result from various causes, including positional influences or premature suture fusion. Dr. Rao offers advanced surgical procedures to correct the skull shape and improve both functional and aesthetic outcomes.

Scaphocephaly

This condition, resulting from the premature fusion of the sagittal suture, leads to a long, narrow head shape. Dr. Rao utilizes cranial vault remodeling to expand the skull and create a more natural head shape.

How to Prepare for Surgery

  • Follow preoperative instructions: It is advisable to consult a doctor. Strictly follow all preoperative instructions given by Dr. Rao and his team, including fasting guidelines and medication changes.
  • Immediate postoperative period: After surgery, specialists will monitor you closely in the recovery room, monitor your vital signs, and begin pain management to ensure your recovery when you wake up from anesthesia. Dr. Rao asks you and understands your situation and gives you instructions after surgery.
  • Pain management: In addition, effective pain management is critical for optimal recovery and well-being. Dr. Krishna Shamrao works with you to create a pain management plan tailored to your own needs.

Dr. Rao will guide you regarding what to eat and avoid during your recovery, and also on how to handle digestive problems which may arise during this process.
  • Follow-up meetings: Regular follow-ups are scheduled to monitor progress, monitor healing, and address concerns that arise during recovery. Dr. Krishna Shamrao carefully examines and carries out, each follow-up visit modifying treatment plans as needed to ensure optimal outcomes.
