13 maj 2024 · Learn about the pterional or fronto-temporo-sphenoidal approach, a common neurocranial craniotomy technique for accessing supratentorial anatomical substrates. Find out its history, anatomy, indications, contraindications, procedure, complications and variations.
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.
28 wrz 2018 · Learn about the pterional approach, a surgical technique for accessing the brain with minimal brain retraction, first described by Yasargil. The chapter covers the steps, indications, and variations of the approach, with illustrations and references.
1 cze 2001 · The key steps of the pterional approach are positioning, skin incision, interfascial dissection, craniotomy, drilling of the sphenoid wing, and the dural opening. After the bone removal, the ...
The pterional approach (PA) is a versatile anterolateral neurosurgical technique that enables access to reach different structures contained in the cranial fossae. It is essential for neurosurgical practice to dominate and be familiarized with its multilayer anatomy.
1 cze 2001 · The pterional or the frontotemporosphenoidal approach is one of the most commonly used surgical approaches in neurosurgery. Designed and popularized by Yasargil in the 1970s, this approach consists of approaching the brain and the anterior skull base through their lateral aspect by removing the frontal and temporal bones and the greater wing of ...
