V042: TRANSLACERUM-TRANSCAVERNOUS ENDOSCOPIC ENDONASAL APPROACH FOR RESECTION OF MULTICOMPARTIMENTAL SKULL BASE CHONDROSARCOMA
Rafael Martinez-Perez; Geisinger Medical Center
Skull base chondrosarcomas remain a surgical challenge despite advances in neurosurgical armamentarium and can be intimately related to critical neurovascular structures. In this operative video, we aim to discuss the surgical tenets of the translacerum-transcavernous endoscopic Endonasal approach to expose this multicompartimental skull base neoplasm while preserving patient function and achieving Gross-total resection. Through the discussion will be remarking key anatomical landmarks needed for a safe resection.
