Pediatric Neurosurgery, 1991
The authors present aspects of the skull base in trigonocephalic children. Different patterns on clinical anthropometric investigation, bidimensional computer tomography (CT) scan and three-dimensional (3D) CT scan were studied. We present a series of 27 cases of trigonocephaly operated on in the department of pediatric neurosurgery at the Hôpital des ...

Skull base osteomyelitis may develop as a complication of paranasal sinusitis or other regional infectious process or as an unfortunate sequelae of iatrogenic injury or trauma. Afflicted patients generally have some form of systemic immunocompromise, most often diabetes, or a history of external beam radiotherapy for a head and neck malignancy with the

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.

Chondrosarcoma of the Skull Base
Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1986Chondrosarcoma of the skull base is an uncommon neoplasm that comprises 0.15% of all intracranial tumors and 6% of skull base lesions. Compression of vital neurologic structures by tumor expansion as well as the histologic characteristics contribute to the malignant potential of these neoplasms.

Neuroradiology of the Skull Base
Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1984Newer imaging modalities, especially high resolution computed tomographic scanning, have radically altered and expanded the role of radiology in the evaluation and management of lesions affecting the skull base. The location, extent, and tissue characteristics of these lesions can be determined with greater precision than ever before.

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2001
Although lipomas are the most common benign tumours of the head and neck, the involvement of the skull base is rare and it is also very rare for a lipoma to undergo osseous metaplasia to become an ossifying lipoma or osteolipoma. We present a case of a solitary osteolipoma involving the skull base in a 17-year-old girl.
