Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Sphenoid wing meningiomas (SWMs) can be treated with complete surgical resection and the recently introduced endoscopic transorbital approach (ETOA) offers a minimally invasive alternative. In this study, the surgical outcome of ETOA and the extended mini-pterional approach (eMPTA) for SWMs with osseous involvement is compared. METHODS:From October 2015 to May 2019, 24 patients underwent surgery for SWMs with osseous involvement. Among them, tumor resection was performed by ETOA for 11 patients (45.8%) and eMPTA for 13 patients (54.2%). The tumor characteristics, surgical outcome and morbidity, and approach-related aesthetic outcome were analyzed and compared retrospectively between ETOA and eMPTA based on SWM classification. RESULTS:The location of SWMs was mostly the middle sphenoid ridge (group III) (45.8%), followed by the greater sphenoid wing (group IV) (29.2%). Simpson resection grades I/II were achieved in 9 of 11 patients (81.8%) with ETOA and 11 of 13 patients (84.6%) with eMPTA. There were no differences in tumor characteristics between the 2 approaches. Surgery time, surgical bleeding, and hospital length of stay were significantly shorter with ETOA. Three patients had transient surgical morbidities such as diplopia (n = 1), ptosis (n = 1), and cerebrospinal fluid leak (n = 1) after ETOA. No differences could be seen in surgical morbidities between ETOA and eMPTA. CONCLUSIONS:ETOA can provide direct access to the sphenoid bone and resectability with a more rapid and minimally invasive exposure than does eMPTA. Maximal subtotal resection with extensive sphenoid bone decompression for tumors with cavernous sinus infiltration is the key to a good clinical outcome, regardless of the surgical approach.
