What is the difference between Metopic Synostosis and Metopic Ridge? - Dr. Vybhav Deraje

Metopic synostosis and metopic ridge are conditions affecting a baby's forehead due to variations in the fusion of the metopic suture, which typically closes between 3 to 9 months of age. In metopic synostosis, the suture fuses prematurely, often in the womb, leading to a triangular-shaped forehead and potential brain compression, necessitating surgical intervention. Conversely, metopic ridge occurs when the suture fuses slightly earlier than usual, causing a noticeable ridge on the forehead while maintaining a normal head shape; this condition often improves over time and may not require surgery. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 👍 If you love what you see, show your support!
