raniofacial anomalies are rare complex pathologies which needs a
craniofacial team composed of neurosurgeon, a craniofacial plastic
surgeon, and an ophthalmologist. Anomalies at craniofacial region
either due to developmental malformation of the brain (neural tube
defects) or premature closure of cranial or skull base sutures resulting
in skull deformities and problems in normal physiological neurological
development. Each of pathologies needs special neurological
surgery management, sometimes the management is multi-staged.
Neurosurgical management varied from diagnosis, the surgical
procedures and long-term follow up. Hence, we describe the pathology
of craniofacial anomalies and its associated syndromes in addition to
the proper investigation needed for diagnoses and predict possible
short and long-term complication. Also, what craniofacial anomalies
care giver should be focusing on regarding neurological issues such
as intra-cranial pressure early detection and treatment if high and optic
nerve problems. Also dural repair, dealing with brain parenchyma and
its vasculature, and better cosmetic outcome according to craniofacial
metrics.
