Ventral epidural abscess with osteomyelitis at the craniocervical junction is a rare occurrence that typically mandates spinal cord decompression via a transoral approach. However, given the potential for morbidity with transoral surgery, especially in the setting of immunosuppression, together with the advent of extended endonasal techniques, the transnasal approach could be attractive for sel...

متن کاملEndoscopic transnasal approach to sellar tumors.
UNLABELLED Transsphenoidal surgery for sellar region tumors is traditionally done only by neurosurgeons. The use of endoscopes has permitted a direct transnasal approach to the sphenoidal sinus, without dissection of the septal mucosa, reducing postoperative morbidity. AIM The purpose of this study was to assess the technical difficulties, and per and postoperative complications of the otolar...
متن کاملOperative Nuances Far-lateral Approach to the Craniocervical Junction
Received, October 28, 2004. Accepted, March 9, 2005. THE FAR-LATERAL APPROACH is an extension of the standard suboccipital approach, designed to maximize exposure of the lateroventral craniocervical junction. Following a basic principle of cranial base surgery, the angle of view is increased by bone removal. Bone removal involves the most lateral part of the inferior occipital squama and the po...
