Results with Expanded Endonasal Resection of Skull Base Meningiomas Technical Nuances and Approach Selection Based on an Early Experience.
AIM Reconstruction technique advances have created renewed enthusiasm for the expanded endonasal approach (EEA). However, as with any new technique, early experiences inevitably lead to more selective use of these techniques. We reviewed our experience of the expanded endonasal endoscopic approach for skull base meningiomas and place it in context of the literature. MATERIAL AND METHODS We pe...
متن کاملWhat are the limits of endoscopic sinus surgery?: the expanded endonasal approach to the skull base.
The advent of endoscopic technologies and techniques has expanded the limits of conventional endoscopic sinus surgery. The expanded endonasal approach describes a series of surgical modules in the sagittal and coronal planes that allow surgical access to the entire ventral skull base. The sagittal plane extends from the frontal sinus to the second cervical vertebra. The coronal plane extends fr...
متن کاملExtended endoscopic endonasal approach to the skull base.
OBJECTIVE Different approaches to the skull base have been developed through the sphenoidal sinus. Traditional boundaries of the trans-sphenoidal approach can be extended in antero-posterior and lateral planes. We review our experience with the extended endoscopic endonasal approach in the first 12 cases. METHODS We used the extended endoscopic endonasal approach in 12 patients with different...
متن کاملCurrent Status of Endoscopic Endonasal Surgery for Skull Base Meningiomas: Review of the Literature
Endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) is expected to be ideal for the paramedian ventral skull base meningiomas, allowing wide access to the ventral skull base regions and realizing early devascularization of the tumor without retraction of the brain. We searched clinical reports of EEA for skull base meningiomas, written in English language, published before October 2014, using the PubMed litera...
متن کاملEndoscopic endonasal pituitary and skull base surgery.
Here we describe the procedures of endoscopic pituitary and skull base surgery in our institute. We also review the literature to reveal recent advances in this field. Endonasal approach via the sphenoid ostium was carried out for pituitary lesions without the nasal speculum. Postoperative nasal packing was basically not needed in such cases. For meningiomas, craniopharyngiomas, and giant pitui...
