Craniosynostoses are a sort of congenital craniofacial malformations characterized by premature fusion of one

or more cranial sutures during childhood development， leading to abnormal calvarial morphology and restricted intracranial growth. In severe cases， it may result in neurodevelopmental disorders. Traditionally， management has depended on imaging assessment and clinician expertise. With the rise of artificial intelligence （AI）， however， AI has gradually been applied to various aspects of diagnosis， preoperative planning， intraoperative navigation， and postoperative rehabilitation of craniosynostosis， thus promoting a fully digital， end-to-end workflow from diagnosis to recovery.
