The surgery of benign and malignant neoplasms adjacent to or involving the skull base

American Journal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Medicine and Surgery, 1989
A group of patients who have undergone resection of benign and malignant neoplasms, either adjacent to or through the skull base, were evaluated to determine whether the long-term results justify the risks of such surgery. A total of 37 patients underwent 55 operations in a 6.5-year period from December 1979 to July 1986 at The Ohio State University ...

Craniofacial resection for malignant neoplasms of the skull base: An overview

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1998
Advances in combined transcranial and transfacial (craniofacial) approaches for malignant tumors involving the anterior skull base have demonstrated improved survival. The technique allows adequate assessment of the intracranial extent of the tumor through an appropriate craniotomy.

Surgery of the Skull Base for Head and Neck Neoplasms

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1995
Educational objectives: To understand the relationship of deep facial structures to the cranial base and the pertinent intracranial anatomy; to perform the comprehensive workup required by skull base surgery patients; and to acquire a working knowledge of the basic skull base procedures in the anterior, middle, and posterior cranial fossa.

Instruments for Estimation of Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients with Skull Base Neoplasms [PDF]

Skull Base, 2010
With advances in treatment of patients with tumors of the skull base and associated improvement in length of survival, the need for assessment of quality of life (QOL) is becoming increasingly apparent. A thorough assessment of QOL, including functional, physical, social, and emotional status, as well as disease-specific symptoms, allows for comparison

Reconstruction of the orbital walls in surgery of the skull base for benign neoplasms

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2000
Surgery for benign neoplasm extending into the orbital roof requires immediate reconstruction to avoid complications, which include transmission of the cerebral pulse to the globe, bulbar dystopia, diplopia, and fibrosis of the oculomotor muscles. Many alloplastic materials have been employed for such reconstruction, but currently most authors agree ...

Midfacial Degloving For The Management Of Nasal, Sinus, And Skull-Base Neoplasms

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1995
The midfacial degloving approach to the midfacial orbital and anterior skull base structures is very versatile. It provides excellent access to a wide range of resections, such as medial maxillectomy, radical maxillectomy with and without orbital exenteration, anterior skull base cranifacial resection, and partial rhinectomy.

Advances in the diagnosis and management of neoplasms of the skull base

1984
Both benign and malignant lesions involving the skull base occur in one of the most inaccessible areas of the body. Furthermore, surgical resections in this area have been limited by the critical structures located at the skull base and the severity of complications risked with surgery in this area. While neurosurgeons, head and neck oncologic surgeons,

Interdisciplinary Management of Skull Base Neoplasms

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1988
Patrick J. Gullane, MD, and F. Gentilli, MD, University of Toronto, presented their experience with the interdisciplinary management of skull base tumors at the American Academy of Otolaryngology–Head Neck Surgery meeting held this September in Chicago. Their series consisted of 25 patients who ranged in age from 18 to 74 years. Seven of these patients

Reconstruction of Skull Base Defects after Minimally Invasive Endoscopic Resection of Anterior Skull Base Neoplasms

American Journal of Rhinology, 2006
Background The endoscopic resection of the cribriform plate during minimally invasive endoscopic resection (MIER) of the anterior skull base neoplasms may result in large anterior skull base defects. The objective of this study is to describe techniques for the management of skull base defects after MIER.
