Pre-reconstruction of cervical-to-petrous internal carotid artery: An improved technique for treatment of vascular lesions involving internal carotid artery at the lateral skull base.
BACKGROUND Reconstruction of the internal carotid artery (ICA) is an operative challenge for lesions involving the lateral skull base because of excessive blood loss, intraoperative cranial nerve injury, and difficulties in cerebral protection. METHODS Between January 2010 and October 2014, 9 patients with vascular lesions at the lateral skull base were treated with a "pre-reconstruction" tec...
متن کامل[Internal carotid artery parallel to the skull base].
∗ Corresponding author. E-mail address: [email protected] (A. Coca-Pelaz). sulcus. Biopsy of the lesion led to the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the lesion showed no pathological adenopathies and, as an incidental finding, confirmed the presence of the left internal carotid artery in an anomalous position, submucosa at the level of the cavum, medial ...
متن کاملPleomorphic Adenoma of Base of Tongue: Is Midline Mandibulotomy Necessary for Approaching Benign Base Tongue Lesions?
Objective. To report a rare presentation of pleomorphic adenoma, at base tongue, excised surgically by a transoral midline glossotomy technique without mandibulotomy. Case Report. Pleomorphic adenoma is a benign tumor of the salivary gland found rarely in the base of tongue. Surgery is the definitive treatment for this tumor, and different approaches have been mentioned in the literature. In ou...
متن کاملPseudoaneurysm of the petrous internal carotid artery after skull base infection and prevertebral abscess drainage.
A 37-year-old woman with a skull base infection sustained massive oropharyngeal bleeding after incisional nasopharyngeal biopsy and drainage of a prevertebral abscess. A pseudoaneurysm originating at the petrous portion of the internal carotid artery was initially misinterpreted on MR images as typical postoperative change within a resolving abscess cavity. Follow-up MR imaging and conventional...
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...
