Massive Skull Base Ameloblastic Carcinoma with Intracranial Extension.
Ameloblastic carcinoma (AC) is a rare and aggressive malignant epithelial odontogenic tumor that may arise either from the mandible (66.6%) or the maxilla (33.3%). Besides being formed de novo, the tumor can develop from a pre-existing ameloblastoma or odontogenic cyst. The clinical course of AC is typically aggressive with extensive local destruction. AC has also been reported to spread to var...

Since it has a high mortality and morbidity rate, considering a treatment strategy seems necessary.

متن کاملThe Subcranial Extended Anterior Approach: for Craniofacial Resection of Carcinoma Involving the Midline Anterior Skull Base
The extended anterior subcranial approach, for craniofacial resection of carcinoma involving anterior midline skull base, involves an osteotomy of the fronto-naso-orbital external skeletal frame, so as to provide optimum anterior access to the orbital and sphenoethmoid planes, the nasal and paranasal cavities. A clear advantage is the avoidance of frontal lobe retraction, leading to early posto...
متن کاملMalignant tumors of the anterior skull base.
BACKGROUND Cancers of the paranasal sinuses or nasal cavity are the most common malignant tumors of the anterior skull base. Several types of tumors occur in this location, including cancers of endodermal, mesodermal, and epidermal origins. Although anterior skull base surgery is a relatively recent approach in treating these tumors, widespread changes have already occurred in procedural method...
