Abstract
Background
The frontal basal interhemispheric approach (FBIA) provides wide access to the chiasmatic cistern, retrochiasmatic space, and lamina terminalis for craniopharyngioma removal.
Methods
We introduce in detail the anatomical structure related to the FBIA, the surgical techniques of craniotomy, and how to prevent the surgical complications.
Conclusion
The FBIA provides a satisfactory surgical corridor for craniopharyngioma resection.
期刊介绍:
The journal "Acta Neurochirurgica" publishes only original papers useful both to research and clinical work. Papers should deal with clinical neurosurgery - diagnosis and diagnostic techniques, operative surgery and results, postoperative treatment - or with research work in neuroscience if the underlying questions or the results are of neurosurgical interest. Reports on congresses are given in brief accounts. As official organ of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies the journal publishes all announcements of the E.A.N.S. and reports on the activities of its member societies. Only contributions written in English will be accepted.
