Background: Apert syndrome is one of the most severe craniofacial disorders. This study aims to describe the craniofacial surgeries and central nervous system malformations of a cohort of children with Apert syndrome treated in the past 20 years and to compare these data with previously published data. Methods: Retrospective analysis of a series of patients with Apert syndrome treated between 1999 and 2019 in our hospital. Information was analyzed regarding craniofacial procedures, hydrocephalus and presence of shunts, Chiari malformation Type 1, and other brain malformations such as corpus callosum and septum pellucidum anomalies. Results: Thirty-seven patients were studied. Ventriculoperitoneal shunt prevalence was 24.3%, and 8.1% of patients required decompressive surgery for Chiari malformation. All of them needed at least one cranial vault remodeling procedure. The median age for this procedure was 8 months. In 69.7% of patients, the first cranial vault intervention was performed in the fronto-orbital region. In 36.4% of patients, a midface advancement had been performed at the time of this review, although this proportion was very dependent on the follow-up period and the age of the patients. The median age for the midface advancement procedure was 5.25 years. Anomalies of the corpus callosum and the septum pellucidum were reported in 43.2% and 59.5% of patients, respectively. Conclusion: Apert syndrome is a type of syndromic craniosynostosis, and patients usually require one or more cranial and facial surgeries. In comparison with other syndromic craniosynostosis types, Apert syndrome less frequently requires a VP shunt or treatment for a Chiari malformation.

Craniosynostosis is a premature cover of one or more sutures, which may occur as part of syndrome (syndromic) or as a separate defect / isolated defect (nonsyndromic). Cohen and Kreirborg state the incidence of Apert and Crouzon syndromes of 15.5: 1,000,000 and 16.5: 1,000,000 per birth. The incidence of craniosynostosis in Indonesia still not handled properly, as well as low recognition in this disorder. RSUD Dr. Soetomo as an eastern referral hospital, which has one of the centers of plastic surgery education in Indonesia, where craniosynostosis syndromic often occurs, so we have the most total cases handled in Indonesia. This is a retrospective descriptive study discusses more about the profile of patients syndromic craniosinostosis for 5 years in dr. Soetomo Surabaya, performed on twenty-four first syndromic craniosinostosis patients at Dr. Soetomo Surabaya period 1 January 2008 - 31 December 2013. Out of 24 total patients, 12 cases of apert (29%), 6 crouzon cases (54%) and 3 cases of pfeiffer (17%) were obtained. Based on sex, more commonly found in women (54%). With the most common age the patient comes first is aged 5-10 years (37%). Each patient has an average of 2 surgeries, with a type of surgical action on cranial vault remodeling patients. Abnormalities of syndromic craniosinostosis found the most common in women and apert syndrome in RSUD dr.Sutomo. Where the most common age when the arrival of 5-10 years, caused by the late diagnosis of the disorder
