    Default 7 month Sagittal. anyone had Endoscopic at this late stage?

    Hi,

    We do have the option of having endoscopic done on our 7month old boy who has Sagittal synostosis and are trying to find anyone who had it at 6months or older.

    Thanks,
    Jordan

    My Husband had Strip done at 6 months old and he has great results. I have a few pics in our album.... you can't really tell anything.... and that is the end goal! Not the same procedure but nearly the same age!

    Will it be an endoscopically assisted CVR or a strip procedure? From what I've read is that an endoscopic strip procedure should always carried out before 6 months of age, but preferably as young as possible.
    I thought it had to do with the helmet, being much more effective when your start at a young age.
    Sorry I can't be of much help, my son had a CVR for metopic when he was 10 months old.
