Resumen
This article reviews previous research on the craniofacial development in Apert and Crouzon syndromes and adds new roentgencephalometric information. It is concluded that craniofacial development in the two syndromes is not the same. Marked differences were found in the calvaria, cranial base, orbit, maxilla, zygoma, incisal occlusion, and soft tissue profile. In general, abnormal craniofacial morphology was more severe in Apert syndrome than in Crouzon syndrome.
