Distraction osteogenesis is the standard surgical procedure for cranioplasty in children over 6 months of age. This technique carries a risk of detachment of the extender and infection during the course, but such troubles can be reduced by accumulating surgical experience. In addition, furing distraction osteogenesis, the cranium can be sufficiently expanded by slowly stretching the scalp, while adjustment ensures that the facial appearance does not change too much. In this paper, I will explain the surgical technique and postoperative management, focusing on FOA(Fronto-orbital advancement)for trigonocephaly or brachycephaly and BPE(Bilateral parietal expansion)for scaphocephaly. The point of surgery in FOA is the osteotomy of the orbital bar. The osteotomy can be performed safely and easily using a wire saw. The aim of surgery in BPE is to extend an osteotomy up to the front of the coronal suture and down to the part near the cranial floor. This allows improvements of the cranial shape while sufficiently increasing the cranial volume.
