What medical procedure is preformed to treat a patient with craniostenosis or to relieve intracranial pressure?

The medical procedure performed to treat craniOStenosis or to relieve intracranial pressure is called craniOSynostosis surgery, often involving a procedure known as cranial vault remodeling or cranioplasty. This surgery corrects the shape of the skull by reshaping the bones and allowing for normal brain growth. In some cases, a shunt may also be placed to alleviate pressure if hydrocephalus is present. The goal is to improve both cosmetic appearance and neurological function.
