Endoscopic surgery offers a minimally invasive approach for removing frontal osteomas, achieving scarless results with no complications. This technique ensures patient safety and aesthetic outcomes for forehead tumor removal.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Frontal osteomas are benign bone tumors that can cause cosmetic deformities and require surgical intervention.
  • Traditional surgical approaches may involve larger incisions and carry risks of visible scarring and nerve damage.

Observation:

  • This study evaluated six cases of frontal osteoma treated with endoscopic-assisted surgery.
  • Patients' ages ranged from 34 to 59 years, with osteoma diameters between 8 and 14 mm.
  • The surgical approach utilized a hidden incision behind the frontal hairline and a subperiosteal dissection plane.

Findings:

  • Endoscopic manipulation facilitated precise dissection, minimizing the risk of injury to nerve branches and vessels.
  • The average operative time was 59.5 minutes.
  • No complications, such as scalp sensation impairment or hematoma, were reported post-operatively.
