Description
Vargas-Moreno and colleagues report outcomes for a nose-based operation on tumours at the base of the skull. The clival region sits deep in the midline, wrapped in vital nerves and vessels, which makes it one of surgery's hardest targets. The extended endoscopic endonasal approach reaches it through the nose, a direct and less invasive corridor.
The team reviews how their patients fared after surgery by this route. Outcomes in such series guide a hard balance: removing enough of a lesion against the risk of harming nearby structures. Their results add one centre's experience to a technique that has shifted skull base surgery away from large open operations.
