Reconstructive Scaphocephlay results from the premature closure of the sagittal suture. The sagittal suture, runs from front to back and in the anterior portion merges with the "soft-spot" of the child's skull. The appearance of a child with Scaphocephaly is such that the head is elongated from front to back and narrowed from side to side. Frequently the skull of these children does not expand at the same rate as the brain, and as such children with Scaphocephaly are prone to neurological disorders. Surgery to correct sagittal suture synostosis, is ideally performed between the ages of 3-12 months by a team of Craniofacial surgeons. Dr. Elliot Duboys, MD, Clinical Associate Professor is Co-Director of the Cleft and Craniofacial Team at University Medical Center, Stony Brook, New York and works in close conjunction with Dr. Michael Egnor, Associate Professor, Pediatric Neurosurgery. The surgery results in a shorter and wider shaped skull.

scaphocephaly (Sagittal synostosis) scaphocephaly involves fusion of the sagittal suture. The incidence of scaphocephaly is one in 2,000 births.
http://www.thecraniofacialcenter.org/synostoses_scaphocephaly.html

Single Suture Craniosynostoses
Scaphocephaly (Sagittal synostosis):
Scaphocephaly involves fusion of the sagittal suture. This sutures runs from front to back starting at the fontanel, at the top of the head, and extends backwards along the middle of the skull to the back of the head. Often the fontanel, or soft spot, is absent or closed. A ridge can be seen, or felt running along the top of the head, in between the right and left half of the skull. When viewed from above, the skull is wider near the forehead and gets narrower towards the back of the skull (which is the opposite of what is normal: that is, the back of the skull is wider than the front). When looking straight on at the child's face, the forehead seems quite big, or prominent, and the sides of the skull look narrow. The incidence of scaphocephaly is one in 2,000 births. It is the most common form of craniosynostosis. In general, a single operation is all that is necessary to treat this condition. A small percentage of children (roughly 2%) end up undergoing a second smaller operation, later in life to correct residual deformities. It is unclear whether or not this is due to an inadequate initial correction, an inherent growth disturbance (the bones are not growing normally afterwards), or a combination of the two.

    16. Craniosynostosis
    The cranial sutures involved in craniosynostosis are depicted and the specific occurrences discussed. In sagittal synostosis (scaphocephaly), the sagittal suture is closed
    http://www.kidsplastsurg.com/craniosynostosis.html
    Craniosynostosis Craniosynostosis is a term that refers to the early closing of one or more of the sutures of an infant's head. The skull is normally composed of bones which are separated by sutures. This diagram shows the different sutures which can be involved.
    As an infant's brain grows, open sutures allow the skull to expand and develop a relatively normal head shape. If one or more of the sutures has closed early, it causes the skull to expand in the direction of the open sutures. This can result in an abnormal head shape. In severe cases, this condition can also cause increased pressure on the growing brain.
    Types of Craniosynostosis
    In sagittal synostosis (scaphocephaly), the sagittal suture is closed. As a result, the infant's head does not expand in width but grows long and narrow to accommodate the growing brain. The sagittal suture is the most common single suture involved in craniosynostosis. The incidence of sagittal synostosis in the population is approximately 1 in 4200 births. Males are affected about three times as often as females.

    Scaphocephaly (also know as, dolichocephaly) refers to the condition where the head is disproportionately long and narrow (see cranial index ). Scaphocephaly can result from the premature fusion of the sagittal suture (see craniosynostosis ) or from external deformation. Scaphocephaly is particularly common among infants who are born prematurely.
