Assessment of the endoscopic endonasal approach to the basilar apex region for aneurysm clipping

Assessment of the endoscopic endonasal approach to the basilar apex region for aneurysm clipping

J Neurosurg 130:1937–1948, 2019

The expanded endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) has shown promising results in treatment of midline skull base lesions. Several case reports exist on the utilization of the EEA for treatment of aneurysms. However, a comparison of this approach with the classic transcranial orbitozygomatic approach to the basilar apex (BAX) region is missing. The present study…

The oculomotor-tentorial triangle. Part 1: microsurgical anatomy and techniques to enhance exposure

The oculomotor-tentorial triangle. Part 1: microsurgical anatomy and techniques to enhance exposure

J Neurosurg 130:1426–1434, 2019

Access to the ventrolateral pontomesencephalic area may be required for resecting cavernous malformations, performing revascularization of the upper posterior circulation, and treating vascular lesions such as aneurysms. However, such access is challenging because of nearby eloquent structures. Commonly used corridors to this surgical area include the…

Quantitative analysis of the trajectory of simulated basilar apex aneurysms through the internal carotid artery to assess the need for an orbitozygomatic approach

Quantitative analysis of the trajectory of simulated basilar apex aneurysms through the internal carotid artery to assess the need for an orbitozygomatic approach

Acta Neurochir (2017) 159:85–92

The aim of this study was to identify the correlation between the location of the internal carotid artery (ICA) and the need for an orbitozygomatic approach (OZA) when approaching a basilar apex (BX) aneurysm.

Materials and methods: By imaging the virtual trajectory to access the basilar artery (BA) through the ICA, the correla- tions among the height of the…
