Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation of aesthetic and anthropometric outcomes of frontorbital correction for non-syndromic anterior plagiocephaly by modified z technique of temporal region osteotomy
Design
A quasi-experimental, before-and-after, double-blind, non-randomized, clinical trial study will be conducted on 49 patients with non-syndromic anterior plagiocephaly who will undergo surgery with the modified z-technique of temporal region osteotomy. According to this study, it will be before and after, the randomization process will not be used in this study. Outcome and skull anthropometric measurements will be measured before and 3 months after surgery. Participants or their parents and the data analyst will be blinded to the type of surgical technique.
Settings and conduct
In this clinical trial before and after study, patients with non-syndromic anterior plagiocephaly who will be operated on in the period of January 2024 and June 2024 in Panzdeh Khordad and Mofid Hospitals in Tehran with the modified z-technique of temporal region osteotomy will be investigated. .
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
The inclusion criteria will include anterior plagiocephaly and infants with an age range of 2 to 24 months. Suffering from genetic diseases such as hemophilia and Down's syndrome, history of previous skull surgery, secondary anterior plagiocephaly, and lack of consent to participate in the study were defined as exclusion criteria.
Intervention groups
Fronto-orbital advancement surgery on patients with non-syndromic anterior plagiocephaly with modified Z osteotomy technique
Main outcome variables
Aesthetic score and changes in anthropometric parameters of the skull

Blinding description
In this study, the parents of the patients were informed about the type of technique used in the operation, because the surgical technique is different only during the operation, and after the surgery is completed and the suture is applied, the size and shape of the incision is similar to the routine surgery, and only the surgeon is aware of the nature of the procedure. The surgery is informed. The outcome assessors did not know about the technique used in the operation in presenting their opinions about the efficiency of the operation result. In post-operative visits, the surgeon did not know the type of technique to present his opinion on the result of each patient's operation.

Intervention groups

Description
Intervention group: For all patients with non-syndromic plagiocephaly, a coronal incision is first given so that the frontal bone can be moved after the flap is raised and turned down to 5 cm above the rim of the orbit, the flap is raised subperiosteally to the edge of the rim so that the supraorbital and supratrochlear nerves are not damaged. After correcting the shape of the skull and forehead on the head with a suitable design, the osteotomy of the upper region of the orbit and its continuation to the temporal region is performed as a z-osteotomy. Bone incisions and breaking the bone in the form of (Barrel Stave) are performed to correct the narrowing of the frontal area and the deformities in the frontal bone parts above the orbit and the upper part of the frontal bone separately. The repositioning of the upper parts of the eyeball is done as an approximation, and absorbable screws and plates are used to fix the bone parts. In temporal osteotomy, the 2 edges of the bone site are placed together in a z-shape so that there is less defect and no need for bone graft, and there is no possibility of the bone piece sliding or returning after fixing. After fixing the bone with screws and plates and reaching the desired shape, and sufficient hemostasis and drain placement, then the scalp flap is returned to its place, and its layers are repaired.
