Meningiomas of the Anterior Clinoid Process: Is It Wise to Drill Out the Optic Canal?
INTRODUCTION Meningiomas of the anterior clinoid process are uncommon tumors, acknowledged by most experienced surgeons to be among the most challenging meningiomas to completely remove. In this article, we summarize our institutional experience removing these uncommon and challenging skull base meningiomas. METHODS We analyzed the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing surgical removal o...
متن کاملSurgical Resectability of Skull Base Meningiomas
With recent advances in surgical technology such as preoperative imaging, neuro-monitoring, and surgical instruments, the surgical resectability of intracranial meningiomas has increased over the last two decades. This study reviewed clinical articles regarding the surgical treatment of meningiomas to clarify the role of surgical excision, with a focus on skull base meningiomas. We sub-classifi...
متن کاملIntracranial ricocheting of bullet from anterior clinoid process.
Gunshot wounds to the head are usually mortal injuries. We present a unique case of intracranial ricocheting of bullet without neurological deficits. Patient was treated conservatively with antibiotics for one week and prophylactic anticonvulsants for six weeks. Patient is doing well at six months follow up. Repeat X-ray skull showed that bullet was lying in the occipital region. It is recommen...
متن کاملMicrosurgical anatomy and variations of the anterior clinoid process.
AIM The aim of this study was to better define the microsurgical anatomy of the supra/parasellar region and describe variations of the anterior clinoid process (ACP). MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifteen formalin-fixed cadaver heads and 25 dry skulls were used to define the microsurgical anatomy of the ACP and related structures. The presence of the caroticoclinoid foramen (CaCF) as well as other rel...
متن کاملHorizontal distance of anterior communicating artery aneurysm neck from anterior clinoid process is critically important to predict postoperative complication in clipping via pterional approach
BACKGROUND The difficulty of clipping aneurysm of the anterior communicating artery (AcomA) depends on the size, direction, positional relationship with the parent artery, and height from the anterior frontal base. Cases of clipping unruptured AcomA aneurysm through pterional approach were analyzed to investigate the importance of the horizontal distance from the base of the anterior clinoid pr...
