- Copyright © 2021 by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. BACKGROUND: Adaptive behavior skills are important when assessing cognitive functions related to daily life; however, few studies have assessed these skills in patients treated for nonsyndromic craniosynostosis. In this study, the authors assessed the adaptive behavior skills of children treated for craniosynostosis and examined whether their outcomes are related to surgical technique. METHODS: The Adaptive Behavior Assessment System, 2nd Edition, parent report was used for children (age, 7 to 16 years) treated for sagittal (n = 41), metopic (n = 24), and other rare synostoses (n = 8). Background data, including intelligence quotient, were controlled for confounders. RESULTS: All evaluated children treated for craniosynostosis were estimated as lower in all aspects of adaptive behavior skills (full-scale, conceptual, social, and practical composites; effect size, 0.36 to 0.44) as compared with norms. The sagittal group showed shortcomings in social composite (effect size, 0.48) and subscales measuring self-care and self-direction, although no difference was observed between spring-assisted surgery and pi-plasty regarding outcomes of adaptive behavior skills. In addition, children treated for metopic synostosis showed results indicating shortcomings with adaptive behavior according to the full-scale, conceptual, and social composites (effect size, 0.53 to 0.61) relative to norms. Furthermore, attrition analysis revealed no significant differences between responders (rate, 80.2 percent) and nonresponders. CONCLUSION: These results found that children treated for craniosynostosis display average adaptive behavior skills, and that the two surgical techniques used to treat sagittal synostosis did not differ in their behavioral outcomes. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, III.
