New Insights Into Cranial Base Ontogeny in Modern Humans Through Morphometric Analysis

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 190, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives The cranial base is located at the interface between the face, the brain, and the vertebral column. Understanding its growth is essential for elucidating key aspects of craniofacial development, neurodevelopment, and locomotor function.

Antibiotic‐Impregnated Calcium Sulfate Beads for Local Therapy of Severe Skull Base Osteomyelitis

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Novel Local Therapy of Severe Skull Base Osteomyelitis. ABSTRACT We report on a patient with severe progressive osteomyelitis of the lateral skull base, despite targeted long‐term antibiotic therapy. Successful treatment and recovery of the facial nerve palsy were achieved through additional surgical debridement and insertion of synthetic calcium ...

Fibrous Dysplasia of the Clivus

Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 2010
Fibrous dysplasia (FD) of craniofacial structures is well documented, however, its involvement of the clivus is seldom described. We report a case of clival FD in a young man who presented with headache localized to the occipital area. The radiological studies revealed a monostotic disease confined to the clivus, with typical findings of hypointensity ...

Isolated Hypoglossal Nerve Palsy as an Initial Presentation of Metastatic Breast Cancer in Pregnancy: A Case Report

Progress in Neurology and Psychiatry, Volume 30, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Isolated hypoglossal nerve palsy is rare, with neoplastic causes representing the most common etiology. We present an unusual case of metastatic breast cancer presenting with isolated hypoglossal nerve palsy during pregnancy. A 36‐year‐old primigravida at 17 weeks of gestation was admitted with progressive immobility, worsening back pain, and ...
