On the other hand, the fronto-supraorbital advancement and remodelling and the floating forehead technique create sufficient space for brain growth and result in a normal horizontal axis of the orbits and supraorbital bar. The fronto-supraorbital advancement and remodelling is the most used method nowadays. Over the past few years distraction osteogenesis has been gradually acknowledged since it has a positive effect on hypotelorism. Expanding the distance between the orbits using springs seems to be successful. However, there are discussions whether hypotelorism really needs to be corrected. The minimal invasive endoscopic surgery has been gaining attention since the early 90s, however, it has technical limitations (only strip craniectomy is possible). Attempts have been made to reach beyond these limits. Aesthetic
Aesthetic outcome of metopic  synostosis surgery is persistently good with reoperation hazards below 20%. In 1981 Anderson advised that craniofacial operations for synostosis should be as extensive as necessary after a study of 107 cases of metopic and coronal synostosis. Surgery does not provide a 100% natural outcome, mostly there will be minor irregularities. Reoperations are usually performed on more severe cases (including syndromic metopic synostosis). The hypotelorism  and temporal hollowing are the most difficult to correct: the hypotelorism usually remains under corrected and a second operation is often needed for correction of temporal hollowing. Neurological
The highest rate of neurological problems of single suture synostosis are seen in patients with trigonocephaly. Surgery is performed generally before the age of one because of claims of better intellectual outcome.
People who have nocturnal seizures may notice unusual conditions upon awakening in the morning, such as a headache, having wet the bed, having bitten the tongue, a bone or joint injury, muscle strains or weakness, fatigue, or lightheadedness. Others may notice unusual mental behaviors consistent with the aftermath of a seizure. Objects near the bed may have been knocked to the floor, or the subject may be surprised to find themselves on the floor. Diagnosis is based on clinical history but often EEG and/or polysomnography is required. In many patients the EEG can also be unhelpful as seizures may originate from deep in the brain. Polysomnography can be helpful distinguishing SHE from parasomnias as they often arise from different stages of sleep. Treatment
Like other forms of epilepsy, SHE can be treated with anti-seizure medications. Adequate control of seizures occur in approximately two-thirds of patients with anti-seizure medications while approximately one-third of patients do not appropriately respond. The relative efficacy of different medications has not been systematically investigated. Historically, low-dose carbamazepine has been the preferred medication for SHE and is often considered to be first-line. Other anti-seizure medications which have been studied for the treatment of SHE and found to have efficacy include: oxcarbazepine, topiramate, lacosamide and perampanel. Epilepsy surgery can be efficacious in refractory patients. In addition, there have been reports of successfully treating SHE due to mutations in CHRNA4 with nicotine patches. References
