Can Scaphocephaly Head Shape Be Treated As An Adult?

Q: Dr. Eppley, Hello, I am just inquiring if you are able to correct SCAPHOCEPHALY, which is when the head shape is slightly narrow and abnormally long?

If so, are you able to help children and adults?

Thank you

A:I do have an approach to treat adult scaphycephaly as seen in the attachments which consists of some anteroposterior bone reduction and widening skull augmentation by a custom skull implant.
