چکیده
There are a lot of comparisons concerning the selection of the best approach for tumours of the cavernous sinus. Many experienced authors stated that the approach must be tailored to the nature and the exact location of the tumour in the cavernous sinus and neighbouring structures 2,4,5,6,11,12,13. Although chondromas are considering to be true tumours of the cavernous sinus, because of the rarity of these lesions few reports have been made about the surgery of these tumors 1,3,7. In the present study we report this rare case focusing mainly on the surgical approach of these lesions.
