متن کاملOsteoid Osteoma Presenting as a Painful Solitary Skull Lesion: A Case Report
Introduction: Osteomas are asymptomatic and rare slow growing bony tumors in temporal bone, and should be taken into account in differential diagnosis of the osteolytic solitary skull lesions. Sometimes is associated with pain and functional loss. Only a few cases have been reported. Case Report: We describe a case of an osteoid osteoma of the temporal bone (mastoid) in a 31-year-old woman pr...
متن کاملThe Kawase Approach to Petroclival Lesions of Skull Base: a Landmark in Skull Base Surgery
The petroclival area is a complex region situated at the junction of adjacent parts of sphenoid, temporal and occipital bones. A variety of pathologies may originate in the petroclival area, including meningiomas, schwannomas, chordomas, chondrosarcomas, carcinomas, aneurysms and others. Developments in skull base surgery, neuroradiology and intensive care have led to a breakthrough in the mana...
متن کاملClosure of the sigmoid sinus in lateral skull base surgery
Closure of the sigmoid-jugular complex is generally planned during various surgical procedures on the skull base, either to repair a jugular foramen lesion or as the oncological boundary of the resection. A series of 218 cases of skull base tumour surgeries was analysed in which closure of the sigmoid-jugular complex was systematically planned (bilaterally in one case) in patients treated for j...
متن کاملCSF Otorrhea Resulting from Osteoradionecrosis of the Temporal Bone in a Patient with Recurrent Meningioma
Osteoradionecrosis of the temporal bone is a very rare but potentially lethal complication of radiotherapy for head and neck or skull base tumors. Only two cases of osteoradionecrosis of the temporal bone complicating cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) otorrhea have been reported in the literature. This report describes a case of CSF otorrhea and osteoradionecrosis of the temporal bone in a patient with...
متن کاملDissectable modified three-dimensional temporal bone and whole skull base models for training in skull base approaches.
Training in dissection of the skull base is essential for anatomical understanding and correct surgical techniques, but chances for cadaver dissection are limited, so a substitute is very desirable. Modifications of commercially available three-dimensional (3D) temporal bone and whole skull base models made from surgically dissectable artificial bone are proposed to include artificial dura mate...
