Concepts in Endoscopic Endonasal Skull Base Surgery:
Choosing the right approach…
Open vs Endoscopic:
Lateral access limited by ICASkeletonization and lateralization of paraclival ICA
Risk of injury to ICA
Transpterygoid infrapetrous approachRisk of injury to Eustachian tube; sacrifice of vidian nerve
Retrosigmoid + EEA + GK
26 yo F with meningioma
Visual deterioration is 2x–5x more frequent in Transcranial than Endonasal approaches *
MRI: tumor in right lateral clivus with partial encasement of basilar artery and petrous ICA; extension to foramen rotundum and foramen ovale
Surgery: Endoscopic transclival, right transpterygoid, left transmaxillaryCTM allowed access as far as the parapharyngeal ICA
subtotal resection due to significant lateral extension of tumor
Postop Imaging: near GTR with possible small residual along the left lateral margin of the clivus and jugular bulb (ipsilateral to the transmaxillary approach)
