On the origin of bitemporal hollowing.

Introduction: Long-term results after cranioplasty for trigonocephaly often show bitemporal hollowing and a residual hypotelorism. Both findings fuel the perception that the growth of the periorbital region and the forehead as a whole continues to be restricted, even after correction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the growth process of the periorbital region after correction for trigonocephaly in the long term.
