Retinal detachment after subcranial resection of an anterior skull base tumor.
The subcranial approach has emerged as a safe and effective procedure for resection of tumors of the anterior skull base. This approach allows excellent exposure of the nasal cavities, the paranasal sinuses, and the orbit 1 I also enables a wide approach to the anterior cranial fossa, while applying minimal retraction of the frontal lobes. Complications of this procedure are acceptable and comp...
متن کاملThe Subcranial Extended Anterior Approach: for Craniofacial Resection of Carcinoma Involving the Midline Anterior Skull Base
The extended anterior subcranial approach, for craniofacial resection of carcinoma involving anterior midline skull base, involves an osteotomy of the fronto-naso-orbital external skeletal frame, so as to provide optimum anterior access to the orbital and sphenoethmoid planes, the nasal and paranasal cavities. A clear advantage is the avoidance of frontal lobe retraction, leading to early posto...
متن کاملA Subcranial Approach for Anterior Skull Base Pathology ( Nasal Encephalocele )
A modifi ed subcranial approach based upon the procedure fi rst described by Joram Raveh is a viable alternative to standard craniofacial resection for treating pathology of the anterior skull base. It is basically an extradural approach providing wide exposure to the anterior skull base with minimal brain retraction; thus decreasing signifi cantly the morbidity. We present here two cases of a ...
متن کاملSeptal flip flap for anterior skull base reconstruction after endoscopic resection of sinonasal cancers: preliminary outcomes
Over the past decade surgery for sinonasal malignancies encroaching into the anterior skull base (ASB) has evolved from open craniofacial resection to the use of minimally invasive transnasal endoscopic approaches. Using these techniques, ASB reconstruction is most often performed in a multilayer fashion with autologous free grafts (fascia lata or iliotibial tract) which leads to the production...
متن کاملPericranial wrapping of the frontal bone after anterior skull base tumor resection.
BACKGROUND Classic craniofacial resection and the subcranial approach are well-established techniques for the removal of tumors involving the anterior skull base. These techniques require frontal craniotomy to allow broad exposure of the anterior cranial fossa, a procedure that may be further complicated by local infection and osteomyelitis or because of a reduction in tissue perfusion and dire...
