Abstract:
:The field of skull base surgery has expanded dramatically the surgical horizons in the treatment of skull base neoplasms, which, previously, were considered inoperable because of their locations and relation to vital structures. This article aims to offer improved understanding of surgical indications and appreciation for some of the details of surgical techniques involved.
