Abstract:Background:
The classical supraorbital minicraniotomy (cSOM) constitutes a minimally invasive alternative for the resection of anterior skull base meningiomas (ASBM). Surgical success depends strongly on optimal patient selection and surgery planning, for which a careful assessment of tumor characteristics, approach trajectory, and bony anterior skull base anatomy is required. Still, morphometrical studies searching for relevant anatomical factors with surgical relevance when intending a cSOM for ASBM resecti… Show more
