Skull Reshaping For Early Fused Seams In A Baby

Utah rates for HCPCS 61557

Surgery on an infant whose skull bones have joined together too early, distorting the shape of the head and limiting room for the growing brain. A section of skull is lifted as a free plate of bone, reshaped, and refixed in a corrected position so the head takes a more normal contour and the brain has space.
