Endoscopic trans-nasal approach for biopsy of orbital tumours using image-guided neuro-navigation system

Abstract: The image-guided neuro-navigation system facilitated endoscopic localisation and biopsy of intraorbital tumours and contributed to the reduction of surgical trauma during the procedure. The technique was particularly useful in small, medially located, retrobulbar tumours and in unclear situations when the structure of the lesion resembled surrounding intraorbital tissue.

“…Neuronavigation has been shown to be an essential element in endoscopic intervention within the orbit, as it allows for precise location of the target, thereby enabling surgeons to make the smallest possible opening in the bone and periorbita [1012]; in our patient, however, as the intraorbital foreign body was located in such a concrete and accessible location (beside the lamina papyracea and behind the nasolacrimal duct), we opted not to use this implement. Therefore, we performed a transnasal transethmoidal endoscopic approach to access the lamina papyracea, which preserved our anatomic references (the nasolacrimal duct in this case), thus making this a less invasive approach and a feasible alternative.…”

“…Innovations in navigation technology have also fueled our ability to manage orbital disease minimally invasively . Using CT or CT fused with MRI data for surgical navigation can further enhance surgeon orientation and has been described for the biopsy of intraorbital lesions previously . The use of intraoperative MRI has also been described in the endoscopic endonasal approach for orbital apex lesions, where it specifically helped with the orientation of instruments and in the packing of hemostatic material within the orbit .…”
