INTRODUCTION: Sagittal craniosynostosis associated with midline cephalhematoma is a rare finding. Despite the controversy regarding its etiopathogenesis, this condition represents a clear indication for surgery. CASE REPORT: We present a case of a 10-week-old boy with an ossified midline vertex cephalhematoma and sagittal craniosynostosis. The child underwent a cephalhematoma excision and minimally invasive non-endoscopic narrow vertex craniectomy, with calvarial vault remodeling followed by 2 weeks use of a cranial orthosis. On 5-month follow-up, mesocephaly was achieved. CONCLUSION: Our case is well documented with native CT, 3D CT, intraoperative pictures, and 3D head scan imaging. We described our minimally invasive non-endoscopic technique that led to a rapid cranial vault remodeling with reduction of cranial orthosis need. A review of literature focused on surgical techniques is included.
