This richly illustrated book offers detailed, step-by-step guidance
on surgical approaches and techniques in patients with midline
tumors of the skull base. Access routes are described from both
endoscopic and microscopic standpoints, via different approaches,
in order to provide a 360-degree overview of contemporary midline
skull base surgery. For each pathology, the multiple surgical
options and their specific indications are clearly presented, with
inclusion of neuroradiological images, an anatomical dissection
study and operative images and videos. The book is intended for
surgeons who wish to acquire knowledge and experience in skull base
surgery employing endoscopic endonasal and microsurgical
transcranial techniques. It is exceptional in providing an
integrated perspective that encompasses traditional microsurgical
approaches and the most recent endoscopic ones, with definition of
the indications for and limitations of both options.
