Endoscopic 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...
متن کاملEndonasal surgery of the ventral skull base--endoscopic transcranial surgery.
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. Recently, given the improved prognosis achieved, more attention has been focused on the functional outcomes such as nasal symptoms and quality of life (QOL). The purpose of this review is to assess the functional outcomes after en...
متن کاملToward Video-Based Navigation for Endoscopic Endonasal Skull Base Surgery
Endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery (ESBS) requires high accuracy to ensure safe navigation of the critical anatomy at the anterior skull base. Current navigation systems provide approximately 2 mm accuracy. This level of registration error is due in part from the indirect nature of tracking used. We propose a method to directly track the position of the endoscope using video data. Our meth...
متن کاملEndoscopic Skull Base Surgery
Endoscopic skull base surgery has undergone rapid advancement in the past decade moving from pituitary surgery to suprasellar lesions and now to a myriad of lesions extending from the cribriform plate to C2 and laterally out to the infratemporal fossa and petrous apex. Evolution of several technological advances as well as advances in understanding of endoscopic anatomy and the development of s...
