Skull base chondrosarcoma

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2016
Intracranial chondrosarcoma are rare tumours, accounting for approximately one in 1000 intracranial neoplasms. Although more common in the axial or appendicular skeleton, intracranial tumours present a challenging surgical and oncological problem. Chondrosarcoma have a predilection for the skull base and although commonly slow growing, Grade II and III

Skull-base metastases

Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2005
Metastasis to the skull-base particularly affects patients with carcinoma of the breast and prostate. Clinically, the key feature is progressive ipsilateral involvement of cranial nerves. Five syndromes have been described according to the metastatic site including the orbital, parasellar, middle-fossa, jugular foramen and occipital condyle syndromes ...

Skull base chordoma

Head & Neck, 2005
Our purpose was to discuss the optimal treatment and outcomes for patients with skull base chordomas.We reviewed the pertinent literature for this study.Skull base chordomas usually arise in the clivus and are rarely completely resectable. Therefore, most are treated with radiotherapy (RT).

Skull Base Anatomy

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2016
The anatomy of the skull base is complex with multiple neurovascular structures in a small space. Understanding all of the intricate relationships begins with understanding the anatomy of the sphenoid bone. The cavernous sinus contains the carotid artery and some of its branches; cranial nerves III, IV, VI, and V1; and transmits venous blood from ...

Skull Base Chordomas

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2011
Skull base chordomas are rare midline malignancies of clival origin that represent one of the most challenging skull base tumors to treat, given their location, invasiveness, potential extension around vital neurovascular structures, and high recurrence rate. Total tumor resection is the mainstay of treatment.

Skull Base Osteomyelitis- Marauders of the Skull

Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, 2023
Skull base osteomyelitis is a vicious infection of temporal bone associated with very high morbidity and mortality. But few studies have been undertaken recently for eliciting its increasing incidence. Hence this study aims to describe the clinical profile of skull base osteomyelitis and changes noted in the post-covid period, and encourage a uniform ...

Skull Base Chordomas

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1986
Chordomas are rare, benign tumors of the nasopharynx. Because of their location at the skull base, removal of these tumors is usually subtotal. Described is the transcervical-transmandibular approach to the skull base which can be employed in removing these tumors.

Skull base mapping

The Laryngoscope, 1982
AbstractEarly experience with medium to large tumors of the temporal region has re‐emphasized the value of radiologic preoperative plotting of these space occupying lesions in the sagittal, coronal, and horizontal planes. Attention to probable pathology, neurovascular structures and patient's medical status has been important in determining ...

Skull base reconstruction

Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery, 2003
Reconstruction of skull base defects following tumor resection is of paramount importance in avoiding serious and life-threatening complications. Cranial base surgery has evolved and outcomes have steadily improved as increasingly reliable reconstructive techniques have been adapted to repair the challenging wounds in this complex anatomic region.

Skull Base Surgery for Benign Skull Base Tumors

Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2004
The use of skull base techniques in the treatment of benign skull base tumors has allowed access to areas of the brain once considered inaccessible. The most common benign skull base tumors encountered in neurosurgical practice are benign meningiomas, schwannomas, and glomus jugulare tumors.
