Comparison of endoscopic and endoscope-assisted microscopic transsphenoidal surgery for pituitary adenoma resection: a prospective randomized study.
[OBJECTIVE] The value of endoscopic versus microsurgical approach has not yet been defined in transsphenoidal pituitary adenoma surgery. In this study, we compare both methods and analyze the long-term surgical, radiological, endocrinologic…

Microsurgical Resection of a Pineal Cyst via a Paramedian Supracerebellar Infratentorial Approach.
Pineal cysts are typically detected in around 1.3% to 4.3% of patients during routine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. The vast majority of pineal cysts are benign, asymptomatic, and typically do not necessitate surgical intervention…

Endoscope-assisted microvascular decompression in hemifacial spasm with a teflon bridge.
[BACKGROUND] Microvascular conflicts in hemifacial spasm typically occur at the facial nerve's root exit zone. While a pure microsurgical approach offers only limited orientation, added endoscopy enhances visibility of the relevant structur…

Endoscope-Assisted Microsurgery for Posterior Fossa Skull Base Meningioma Surgery: Technique and Results.
[BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES] Surgery of posterior fossa meningiomas is extremely challenging even for experienced skull base surgeons because of the close proximity to cranial nerves and tight spaces. Endoscope-assisted surgery for posterior…

Management of cavernous sinus meningiomas: Consensus statement on behalf of the EANS skull base section.
[INTRODUCTION] The evolution of cavernous sinus meningiomas (CSMs) might be unpredictable and the efficacy of their treatments is challenging due to their indolent evolution, variations and fluctuations of symptoms, heterogeneity of classif…

Pineal cysts without hydrocephalus: microsurgical resection via an infratentorial-supracerebellar approach-surgical strategies, complications, and their avoidance.
Indications for surgery of pineal cysts without ventriculomegaly are still under debate. In view of the limited data for pineal cyst resection in the absence of hydrocephalus, and the potential risk of this approach, we have analyzed our pa…
