At the full moon, Xiaoqingqing was discovered to have a protruding frontal bone and some abnormal head shape, but the family didn't pay much attention and always thought it would be better if it grew longer. However, as Qingqing grew up, his mother found that he had neither a round head nor a flat head, but a boat shaped head; Xiao Qingqing's temper gradually became irritable, often crying and even slapping her forehead. Wang Xiaoqiang, Deputy Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, found that behind the head of the boat is a condition of cranial stenosis, which not only affects appearance, but may also lead to brain dysfunction. In order to minimize the impact on children, Wang Xiaoqiang re customized Qingqing's skull by 3D printing and reshaping it, and through surgical stitching, helped Qingqing restore a circular head.
