Transoral approach to the craniovertebral junction [PDF]

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2007
The transoral approach provides a safe exposure to lesions in the midline and the ventral side of the craniovertebral junction. The advantages of the transoral approach are 1) the impinging bony pathology and granulation tissue are accessible only via the ventral route; 2) the head is placed in the extended position, thus decreasing the angulation of ...
