This study introduces three new minimally invasive transcanal surgical approaches for treating lateral skull base pathologies. These techniques offer novel solutions for complex surgical challenges in this anatomical region.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Lateral skull base pathologies present significant surgical challenges due to complex anatomy.
  • Effective management requires detailed anatomical understanding and specialized surgical approaches.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe three novel, minimally invasive, transcanal surgical approaches for lateral skull base pathology.
  • To outline the indications, advantages, and disadvantages of each approach.

Main Methods:

  • Description of three distinct transcanal surgical techniques.
  • Analysis of anatomical considerations for each approach.
  • Review of patient selection criteria and outcomes.

Main Results:

  • Successful demonstration of three minimally invasive transcanal routes.
  • Detailed account of anatomical landmarks and surgical steps.
  • Comparative analysis of approach-specific benefits and limitations.

Conclusions:

  • Minimally invasive transcanal approaches offer viable alternatives for lateral skull base surgery.
  • These novel techniques expand the surgical armamentarium for managing lateral skull base conditions.
  • Further research is warranted to evaluate long-term outcomes and refine techniques.
