The supraciliary frontolateral keyhole craniotomy offers a minimally invasive surgical option for anterior and middle cranial fossa lesions. This cosmetic approach provides excellent exposure for treating various intracranial pathologies.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Traditional surgical approaches for anterior and middle cranial fossa lesions include the frontobasal approach.
  • Modifications and alternative techniques are continuously being developed to improve patient outcomes and minimize invasiveness.

Observation:

  • A supraciliary frontolateral keyhole craniotomy utilizes a small, eyebrow-level incision for a minimally invasive approach.
  • This technique involves a craniotomy measuring approximately 2.5 x 3.0 cm, positioned superior to the eyebrow.

Findings:

  • The supraciliary frontolateral keyhole craniotomy is a modification of traditional methods, offering a less invasive alternative.
  • This technique provides excellent surgical exposure for a range of intracranial lesions within the anterior and middle cranial fossae.
  • A detailed, step-by-step description of the surgical approach is provided to guide understanding and application.

Implications:

  • This minimally invasive cosmetic approach is suitable for numerous anterior and middle cranial fossa pathologies.
  • While not universally applicable to all intracranial conditions, it represents a valuable option for selected cases.
  • The technique enhances cosmetic outcomes due to the concealed incision placement.
