13 maj 2024 · The pterional or fronto-temporo-sphenoidal approach is one of the most frequently performed neurocranial craniotomy/craniectomy approaches and allows access to numerous important supratentorial anatomical substrates of vascular and neoplastic pathology.
17 lis 2019 · The pterion is the H-shaped formation of sutures on the side of the calvarium representing the junction of four skull bones: It is located at the anterior end of the s quamous suture, whereas the asterion is located at the posterior end.
Pterional craniotomy is the workhorse approach among cranial operative corridors. It is a highly flexible skull base approach that affords excellent exposure of the anterior cranial fossa, the circle of Willis, and the interpeduncular region.
1 sty 2020 · The frontotemporal, also called pterional, approach is one of the most commonly used approaches by neurosurgeons to access the sphenoid wing, suprasellar and sellar regions, cavernous sinus, and upper clivus. This approach is indicated in: • Aneurysms clipping the anterior and posterior circulation (upper basilar and its proximal branches) •
The pterional or frontotemporal craniotomy is the workhorse of the supratentorial approaches. Because of its simplicity, flexibility, efficiency, and familiarity to neurosurgeons, this corridor is the most commonly used surgical route to lesions along the anterior and middle skull base.
6 lut 2020 · Illustration of cranio-orbital and orbitocranial approaches to the intracranial cavity. Frontotemporal or pterional (red), orbitozygomatic approach (yellow), supraorbital keyhole approach (green), transorbital keyhole approach (blue), and lateral orbital wall approach (purple).
7 lut 2020 · The pterional craniotomy (A) provides excellent exposure of the anterior and middle cranial fossae with the center of exposure on the sylvian fissure and sphenoid wing. The supraorbital...
