Pediatric Craniofacial Surgery
Pediatric Craniofacial surgery -- Surgical treatment to repair deformities of the head and face (craniofacial). Surgery for head and face deformities (craniofacial reconstruction) depends on the type and severity of deformity, and the condition of the patient. In some cases, because surgical repairs involve the skull (cranium), brain, nerves, eyes, facial bones, and facial skin, a plastic surgeon (for skin and face) and a neurosurgeon (brain and nerves) work together.
