Brain stem auditory evoked potentials in posterior circulation surgery.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Although the combined petrosal approach has significant advantages for medium to large petroclival lesions, it carries the risk of a few major complications. The cerebrospinal fluid leak rate with this approach has been reported to be as high as 15%. OBJECTIVE:To describe an innovative technique of watertig...
