چکیده
treatment of skull base disorders and is routinely used in some centers for the treatment of neoplastic and non-neoplastic cranial base pathology. The group of minimally invasive endoscopic techniques used to approach the cranial base are also known as expanded endoscopic approaches (EEA), which are classified in a modular fashion under two main categories: sagittal (or cranio-caudal) and coronal (or medio-lateral).

Endoscopic versus Open Approach to the Infratemporal Fossa: A Cadaver Study.
Introduction Various lateral and anterior approaches to access the infratemporal fossa (ITF) have been described. We provide our observations regarding the endoscopic transpterygoid and preauricular subtemporal approaches, listing their respective advantages and limitations through cadaveric dissection. Methods A cadaver study was performed on five adult specimens. An endoscopic transpterygoid ...
متن کاملVolumetric analysis of endoscopic and traditional surgical approaches to the infratemporal fossa.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS In an effort to decrease morbidity, skull base surgeons have explored less invasive approaches to the infratemporal fossa, including endonasal-endoscopy, minicraniotomies, and transantral endoscopic and microscopic corridors. This project presents quantitative data that assesses the practicality, and volumetric exposure afforded by endonasal and open approaches to the infr...
متن کاملEndoscopic endonasal approach to the maxillary strut: anatomical review and case series.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The maxillary strut is the bone that separates the foramen rotundum and superior orbital fissure. Tumors involving the lateral wall of the sphenoid sinus, posterior ethmoid, or posterior maxillary sinus may invade this region. The authors detail the anatomy of the strut and present a case series that emphasizes the importance and utility of this useful landmark during an e...

Background : Our aim in this study was to recognize the endoscopic anatomy of the Pterygopalatine fossa (PPF) and the anatomic variations of the related neurovascular structures, to define the endoscopic endonasal approach to this region. Methods: In a case series study 17 fresh adult cadavers were studied by endoscopic endonasal approach. To reach the pterygopalatine fossa endonasally, we ...
متن کاملCombined simultaneous transcranial and endoscopic endonasal resection of sphenoorbital meningioma extending into the sphenoid sinus, pterygopalatine fossa, and infratemporal fossa
BACKGROUND Sphenoorbital meningiomas are surgically challenging because of their nature to extend to adjacent structures. Here, we describe a case of recurrent sphenoorbital meningioma extending into the sphenoid sinus, pterygopalatine fossa, and infratemporal fossa, which was resected using combined simultaneous transcranial and endoscopic endonasal approaches. CASE DESCRIPTION A 62-year-old...
