Interdisciplinary Management of Skull Base Neoplasms
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

PET Imaging of Skull Base Neoplasms
The utility of 18-F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (PET) and PET/CT for the evaluation of skull base tumors is incompletely investigated, as a limited number of studies specifically focus on this region with regard to PET imaging. Several patterns can be ascertained, however, by synthesizing the data from various published reports and ...

Minimally invasive endoscopic resection of sinonasal and anterior skull base malignant neoplasms
The evolution of minimally invasive endoscopic techniques, coupled with advances in surgical instrumentation and computer-aided surgery, has greatly facilitated the management of complex sinonasal and skull-base pathology. This accrued experience has facilitated consideration of the treatment of malignant neoplasms of the paranasal sinuses and skull ...

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

Combined orbito-frontal, sub- and infratemporal fossa approach to skull base neoplasms
Neoplasms located along the antero-lateral skull base, with probable involvement of the orbit and with extension into the pterygoid and/or infratemporal fossa can usually not be sufficiently exposed using standard neurosurgical or otosurgical approaches, which is why combined approaches to these skull base targets have been developed in the recent past.

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

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

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