Results Following the Transcranial Operative Attack on Orbital Tumors

Volumetric Analysis of Spheno-Orbital Meningiomas: Prognostic Correlation and a Compartmentalized Approach

“…The relationship between SOM and proptosis was described in early studies by Dandy 15 in the 1940s. Despite ongoing investigations, tumor characteristics most associated with proptosis in patients with SOM remain unclear.…”

Craniofacial Resection of Anterior Skull Base Tumours: Factors Contributing to Success

“…Our results showing a poorer prognosis associated with dural involvement (P = 0.024) are in agreement with most authors,gJ0J3.~9 although this is not a universal finding.llJ2 It may be that Richtsmeier and McCaffrey's results were influenced by the comparatively large proportions of esthesioneuroblastomas in their series. 1 Involved margins, high tumour grade and dural invasion are not independent variables. A patient with a high-grade tumour is more likely to have dural invasion and positive margins than a patient with a low-grade or benign tumour, and which of these factors is the most relevant would need to be the subject of a multi-institutional research project because the small numbers in most series make multivariate analysis inappropriate.…”

A Novel Classification of Brain Invasion in Malignant Ethmoidal Tumors and Management Proposal

“…Although first descriptions of a combined transcranial and transfacial approaches were attributed to Walter Dandy (1941) [14] and Ray-McLean (1943) [15] for the resection of invasive orbital tumors, a revision of operative notes of Harvey Cushing documented the craniofacial approaches he applied on 3 patients with anterior skull base involvement as early as 1902-1909 [17]. In 1954…”
