Complication avoidance in the treatment of malignant tumors of the skull base.
Neurosurgical Focus 2002 May 16
The treatment of malignant skull base tumors has improved with the development of skull base surgical approaches that allow en bloc resection of a lesion and increase the efficacy of adjuvant therapies. The anatomical complexity of these lesions and their surroundings has led to a relatively high complication rate. Infection and cerebrospinal fluid fistulas are the most common serious procedure-related complications. They result from the frequent necessity of working in a contaminated space such as the paranasal sinuses as well as from the creation of large dural and skull base defects. The authors have reviewed the literature regarding complications of surgery for malignant skull base lesions and present several techniques and strategies for minimizing their incidence by performing the craniofacial approach to anterior skull base lesions.
