Removal of an orbital apex hemangioma using an endoscopic transethmoidal approach: technical note.

abstract：:Somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) were monitored during 113 operations for the clipping of 134 cerebral aneurysms. Changes in peak latency and amplitude of early cortical SEP as well as central conduction time were evaluated. In 58 cases surgical occlusion of arterial vessels or other events occurred, and in 17 o...
