Expected prevalence ranges for total and syndromic craniosynostosis, per 10,000 live births within the mentioned timeframes. These prevalence figures are based on previous country-level studies. Syndromic craniosynostosis cases include multisutural craniosynostosis. The percentage of craniosynostosis cases that were reported to be syndromic (including multisutural craniosynostosis) are also displayed
