Craniofacial Services at Rady
Children’s Hospital, San Diego
Craniofacial Services at Rady Children's Hospital, San Diego provides a team approach to treat craniosynostosis and other craniofacial disorders. The team serves the needs of children with complex facial differences and functional problems with the jaws and airway. The surgical interventions often ensure a positive future for children who would have been left with deformity. Due to the complexity of their condition, many of these children require evaluation and treatment involving a geneticist, orthodontist, pediatric dentist, speech pathologist, social worker and other specialists.
Children who require craniofacial surgery for craniosynostosis may require care at Rady Children's Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), which is consistently ranked one of the top PICU's in the country.
