Skull base surgery is evolving from traditional transfacial and transcranial approaches to the endoscopic endonasal approach, a less intrusive corridor for accessing the ventral skull base. This technique eliminates facial scars, expedites recovery, and obviates brain retraction. The goals of surgical excision, whether palliative or curative, are identical: an approach that is less disruptive t...
متن کاملPostoperative Findings in Endoscopic Endonasal Surgery of The Skull Base
Since the introduction of endonasal endoscopic skull base surgery the exclusive purpose in the management of skull base neoplasms has been to increase survival rates.
