Supraorbital eyebrow approach: A single-center experience

Abstract: Background: Keyhole neurosurgery is the notion of safely removing brain and skull base lesions through smaller and more precise openings that lessen collateral damage to the surrounding scalp, brain, blood vessels, and nerves. The traditional frontal and pterional approaches require large craniotomies and this predisposes patients to significant and avoidable morbidity. With the growing expectation for minimally invasive surgery, we present our experience with the supraorbital keyhole craniotomy for surgical … Show more

“…This involves a limited incision with minimal tissue manipulation and minimizes the frontal lobe retraction, with subsequent decreased pain and rapid healing instead of conventional approaches. [ 16 , 17 , 25 ] In our opinion, SKA is an excellent option for treating lesions in the prechiasmatic and suprasellar areas because it provides a clear and direct view of the neurovascular structures.…”

“…SKA can also be limited by extensive frontal sinus pneumatization and lesions below the sphenoid wing. [ 16 ] Furthermore, retrochiasmatic lesions may pose potential complications when using SKA, and hence, a different approach (pterional or endonasal endoscopic approach), may be required. [ 17 ] An additional inconvenience is the light found through such a corridor for mSKA,[ 17 ] as we specify for the second case.…”
