Extended 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 کاملIntracranial Chondrosarcoma Resected Via an Extended Endoscopic Endonasal Approach
Chondrosarcoma are a heterogenous group of primary malignant bone tumours, and are the third most common primary malignant bone tumour (Dorfman and Czerniak, 1995). Intracranial chondrosarcomas however are a rare entity, and account for only 0.15% of all intracranial tumours (Bloch et al., 2009, Bloch and Parsa, 2013, Bloch et al., 2010). The median survival time for patients with intracranial ...
متن کاملA rare case of chordoma and craniopharyngioma treated by an endoscopic endonasal, transtubercular transclival approach.
Co-occurrence of different brain tumors is rarely observed, being more frequent in patients affected by genetic syndromes like phacomatoses. Different histological types of intracranial lesions may present at different times in the clinical history of the patient or, more rarely, they may occurr at the same moment. In these last cases, particularly for tumors located in adjacent areas of the br...
متن کاملEarly outcome in endoscopic extended endonasal approach for removal of supradiaphragmatic craniopharyngiomas: a case series and a comprehensive review
BACKGROUND The choice of endoscopic expanded endonasal approach introduces the possibility of improved gross total resection of craniopharyngioma while minimizing surgical morbidity in a significant subset of patients. METHODS From our trans-sphenoidal surgical series of 331 cases, we retrospectively reviewed visual, endocrine and neuro-cognitive outcomes in the first consecutive eight patien...
متن کاملEndoscopic endonasal approach for nonvestibular schwannomas.
BACKGROUND Nonvestibular schwannomas of the skull base often represent a challenge owing to their anatomic location. With improved techniques in endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery, resection of various ventral skull base tumors, including schwannomas, has become possible. OBJECTIVE To assess the outcomes of using endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) for nonvestibular schwannomas of the sk...
