Background Endoscopic skull‐base surgery (ESBS) is employed in the management of
diverse skull‐base pathologies. Paralleling the increased utilization of ESBS, the literature in …

Abstract Objectives/Hypothesis: Systematically review the outcomes of endoscopic
endonasal techniques to reconstruct large skull base defects (ESBR). Such surgical …

CSF is an ultrafiltrate of plasma or serum, which contains electrolytes, glucose, and proteins.
Located in the cerebral ventricles and cranial/spinal subarachnoid space, this fluid serves in …

Objectives/Hypothesis Endoscopic endonasal skull base surgery defects require effective
reconstruction. Although the nasoseptal flap (NSF) has become our institution's workhorse …

Background The anatomy of the skull base is extremely complex with an abundance of
critical neurovascular bundles and their corresponding foramina as well as the insertions …

Malignant tumors of the sinonasal tract are rare, accounting for only 1% of all malignancies.
Although they are associated with substantial histological heterogeneity, surgery plays a key …

Objectives: Expansion of the clinical indications for ablative endoscopic endonasal
approaches has behooved us to search for new reconstruction alternatives. We present the …

Background: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea, when left untreated, can lead to
meningitis and other serious complications. Treatment traditionally has entailed an open …

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak occurs from traumatic, iatrogenic, and idiopathic etiologies.
Its timely diagnosis requires clinical, radiographic, and laboratory testing. Medical and …

Abstract Objectives/Hypothesis: The nasoseptal flap provides hearty vascularized tissue for
reconstruction of expanded endonasal approaches (EEA); however, it produces donor site …
