Summary
The one-piece transbasal approach (TBA) is a feasible alternative to the traditional two-piece method for anterior skull base surgery. This technique offers potential benefits including simpler reconstruction and improved cosmetic outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Neurosurgery
- Anatomical Studies
Background:
- The transbasal approach (TBA) is a standard anterior skull base technique, typically performed in two separate steps involving bifrontal craniotomy and orbital/nasal osteotomies.
- This two-piece method allows for extensive bone removal but may increase operative complexity.
