Summary/Abstract: Craniosynostosis is a congenial malformation caused by premature fusion of one ormore cranial sutures, leading to abnormal shape of the skull. Non-syndromic craniosynostoses can result in developmental disorders, including speech acquisition delay. The authors have carried out neurologopaedic research on a group of 124 children aged 3 to 59 months of life. In these cases, causes of speech disorders are very complex. Additional research concerning speech and language development in school age children with craniosynostoses is essential.
