Rigid Skeletal Fixation of the Immature Craniofacial Skeleton

Abstract

This project is presently in progress. Two cynomolgus macques (Macacca fascicularis) have undergone craniotomy and rigid fixation of the frontal bone and supraorbital bar of the skull. Ten were non-human primates have been in quarantine and will be released for surgery in Oct 92. The remainder of the non-human primates will be arriving intermittently and undergo quarantine prior to surgery. The initial two non-human primates underwent general anesthesia and surgery and presently are doing very well, gaining weight, and maturing appropriately....
