15 maj 2024 · The mechanisms underlying breast cancer brain metastasis (BCBM) development are complex, and its clinical presentation varies depending on the number, location, and size of brain metastases. Common symptoms include headache, neurologic deficits, and seizures.
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.
20 lip 2020 · Transcranial approaches to the orbit provide familiar and flexible approaches with wide access to the majority of the orbit, only limited in the inferomedial orbit. A pterional craniotomy is the predominant approach but can be expanded with an orbital or zygomatic osteotomy for even wider access.
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of metastases to the central nervous system (CNS) and up to a third of patients with breast cancer are diagnosed with CNS disease. 1-3 The role of systemic therapies in the treatment of breast cancer brain metastases (BCBM) has increased in significance, with particularly promising advances in the human ...
16 sty 2024 · Kang et al. described a pterional craniotomy with keyhole for treatment of supratentorial aneurysms. This variant involved a single burrhole in the posterior temporal fossa. Reisch et al. describe the supraorbital keyhole craniotomy (Table 3).
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.
