30 Anterior Transpetrosal Approach versus EEA Transclival Approach
Jun Muto, Leo F. S. Ditzel Filho, Bradley A. Otto, Ricardo L. Carrau, Daniel M. Prevedello
Introduction
In pathologies involving the petroclival and petrous apex regions, the approach used is based on lesion extension, histologic origin, and involvement with the epidural or subdural space. The anterior transpetrosal approach (ATPA) is an established technique to access the upper and middle petroclival lesion and petrous apex. The endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) offers direct access to clival lesions (i.e., median) with or without lateral expansion and shows the greatest benefits and least morbidity for tumors that are medial or caudal to the abducens nerve, such as chordoma and chondrosarcoma, and median midclivus lesions. Both the anterior transpetrosal and the endoscopic endonasal approaches are feasible techniques, which lead to adequate resection rates and outcomes when used in appropriately selected patients by experienced surgeons.
30.1 Indications
30.1.1 Endoscopic Endonasal Approach (EEA)—Transclival Approach
Extradural: Lesions involving the clivus and petrous
apex, such as chordomas, chondrosarcomas and cho­lesterol granulomas.
Intradural: Lesions located medial to the VI cranial nerve,
such as meningiomas, chordomas, neuroenteric cysts.
30.1.2 Anterior Transpetrosal
Approach (ATPA)
Extradural: Posterior and/or lateral to paraclival ICA
segment and lesions with extension to middle fossa and/or infratemporal fossa, such as chondrosarcomas, some chordomas and invasive meningiomas.
Intradural: Lesions located between the cranial nerve
III and VII, VIII, such as meningiomas, trigeminal schwannomas.

Technique
Previous reports Here, we offer a stepwise depiction of the technique. The head is secured in a lateral supine position. A “U”-shaped incision is made above the ear (Fig. 30.1a) and a tempo­ralis fascia flap is raised to facilitate wound closure at the end of the procedure. The temporal fascia is dissected from the temporal muscle and is transposed caudally, while the temporal muscle is transposed anteriorly (Fig. 30.1b). A craniotomy is performed with its base parallel to the zy­gomatic arch and the floor of the middle fossa, just above the root of the zygoma and the mastoid crest (Fig. 30.1c). The periosteal dura is carefully dissected from the tem­poral bone. The foramen spinosum is identified and the middle meningeal artery is located, coagulated, and cut with microscissors (Fig. 30.1d). Next, the foramen ovale is seen anteriorly. The bony depression, along with the greater superficial petrosal nerve (GSPN), marks the an­terolateral boundary of the drilling area, which is further bound by the arcuate eminence posterolaterally, the inter­nal auditory canal (IAC) inferolaterally, the carotid canal inferiorly, and the trigeminal impression anteromedially (Fig. 30.1e). After drilling the petrous pyramid (Fig. 30.1f), the dura of the posterior fossa is opened, finding the later­al aspect of the pons and the root of the trigeminal nerve (Fig. 30.1g). A T-shaped cut is made over the dura of the temporal lobe and along the superior petrosal sinus (SPS), showing the edge of the tentorium. The SPS is coagulated, cut with microscissors, and sutured at both ends. The ten­torium itself is then cut until the tentorial notch is open. This step is performed with care to avoid injury to the trochlear nerve, which runs beneath the medial edge of the tentorium (Fig. 30.1h), and completes the exposure. (Fig. 30.1j)

(a) The head is placed in a lateral supine position. (b) A “U”-shaped skin incision is made above the ear. A temporalis fascial fl ap is raised for closure of the dural defect and displaced caudally; the temporalis muscle is retracted anteriorly. (c) The squamous suture, the mastoid superior crest, and the zygomatic arch are the landmarks for the craniotomy. The craniotomy basal edges are drilled fl ush with the fl oor of the middle fossa to allow visualization of the superior portion of the tumor. (d) The petrous pyramid is exposed epidurally until the petrous rim is identifi ed along the SPS. The foramen spinosum is the initial landmark; the MMA is coagulated with bipolar electrocautery and cut with microscissors. Next, the dura is peeled off epidurally and the foramen ovale, the second key landmark, can be identifi ed anterior to the foramen spinosum. (e) The white dotted area corresponds to the petrous apex section to be drilled down. The greater and lesser superfi cial petrosal nerves (GSPN, LSPN), which can be identifi ed by their dural adhesion, following the bony groove, are located within the periosteal dura. Note that if the periosteal dura at the lateral rim of the greater petrosal groove is incised and dissected at the same layer, this will cause the surgeon to enter the interdural space. Hence, the medial rim of the greater petrosal groove should be incised once again and the epidural dissection should be held to the rim of the petrosal bone.7 The drilling area is outlined by the trigeminal impression anteriorly, the arcuate eminence posteriorly, the greater superior petrosal groove laterally, the carotid canal inferiorly, and the internal auditory canal inferoposteriorly.

The head is secured in the supine position with a three-pin head holder. The approach is initiated with a right middle turbinectomy to provide space for the endoscope and any instrument that will be introduced from this side. The left middle turbinate is not resected but out-fractured. The sphenoid ostium is enlarged, and a nasoseptal flap pedicled on the sphenopalatine artery contralateral to the lesion is elevated to construct the skull base and dura at the end of the procedure. A wide sphenoidotomy and right total and left posterior partial ethmoidectomies are performed, the mucosa on the sphenoid sinus is stripped, and the exposure in nasal cavity is completed with a posterior septectomy (Fig. 30.2a). The mucosa of the contralater­al side in relation to the flap is then transferred back to cover the denuded anterial septal area where the flap was elevated completing what we call “reverse flap”. The pharyngobasilar fascia is bluntly dissected from the roof of the choana. The palatovaginal artery and nerve are co­agulated and cut, and the vidian nerve and canal are iden­tified. The vidian nerve is located lateral to the floor of the sphenoid sinus and is a good landmark to identify the anterior genu of the ICA at the lacerum foramen. A small

Next, the clivus itself is thinned with the drill. The substantial bleeding may be encountered on entry to the cancellous portion of the clivus. To avoid injury to the dura, the inner cortex is carefully removed using Kerrison rongeurs in combination with drilling, and elevation with a Cottle dissector (Fig. 30.2d). Any bleeding in this phase of the dissection is controlled with hemostatic foam.
The clival dura can be exposed completely between the paraclival segments of the ICA to maximize the oper­ative space, and the initial dural incision should be made at the midline to avoid injury to the abducens nerve that runs in the interdural space at the level of the pons. Intra­operative navigation is used to determine the location of the vertebrobasilar junction, as the abducens nerves rise bilaterally from the pontomedullary junction and above the vertebral arteries; this maneuver prevents damage to the nerves by placing the initial dural incision below the vertebrao-basilar junction level (Fig. 30.2e). Finally, the dura is resected with sharp 90-degree Kerrison rongeurs to complete the exposure (Fig. 30.2 f, g). The amount of lateral access is determined by the size of the tumor; typically, large lesions create a wide corridor and require less manipulation of neurovascular structures located at their edges.

window is created in the posterior wall of maxillary sinus to gain access to the pterygopalatine fossa (Fig. 30.2b). To access petroclival and petrous apex lesions via an endo­nasal transclival approach, the vidian nerve is skeleton­ized and followed posteriorly until the cartilages of the foramen lacerum are found. The bone over the paraclival ICA is thinned with the drill and removed using Kerrison rongeurs to expose the periosteal dura. The floor of the sphenoid sinus is drilled flush with the clivus. The infe­rior clival bone is the place of attachment of the longus capitis and the rectus capitis anterior. There are two de­fined attachment lines at the inferior clivus: the superior clival line (for the longus capitis) and the inferior clival line (for the rectus capitis anterior). The inferior clival line offers a reliable landmark for the hypoglossal canal. The longus capitis is removed and the inferior clivus is exposed (Fig. 30.2c).
30.3 Complications
Potential complications in the EEA to petroclival lesions are ICA injury, sixth nerve injury, vidian nerve injury, and injury to the maxillary and mandibular nerves and basi­lar artery, as mentioned previously in Chapter 18.
The possible complications in the ATPA are temporal lobe swelling, contusion, and complications due to ve­nous return disturbance in temporal lobe due to brain retraction, such as aphasia, consciousness disturbance, convulsion, etc. Injury to the greater superior petrosal nerve causing dry eye or facial palsy; and cerebral spinal

fluid leakage are the other complications of the ATPA. This approach requires technical training to drill near the ICA at the petrosal part.

30.5 Case Example
A 52-year-old female presented with a 4-month history of diplopia. Examination revealed hypes­thesia in the first and second divisions of the right trigeminal nerve and left abducent palsy, and no other neurologic deficits. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large tumor in the left parasel­lar lesion, with heterogeneous enhancement. The tumor extended into the middle and posterior fos­sae. The patient underwent tumor resection via ATPA (Fig. 30.3). The tumor was totally resected with preser- vation of the root of the fifth cranial nerve. On the basis of pathologic examination of the obtained sample, the lesion was diagnosed as a schwannoma. Postoperative complications included mild facial hypesthesia of the first and second divisions of trigeminal nerve, but no oculomotor disturbance.

Introduction
Describing the intracranial vascular anatomy is a complex and challenging task, particularly if the anatomy has to be depicted from an endoscopic surgical perspective. For this reason, we have decided to use the concept of corridors as a teaching tool in this chapter. By creating one corridor, it is possible to see what lies behind and this model can be reproduced endlessly during dissection. In this sense, the paranasal sinuses (especially the ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses) can be considered the endoscopic gateway to the ventral and lateral skull base. Obviously, knowledge of the surgical landmarks is mandatory to safely perform every single approach to the skull base. However, the endoscopic corridors are followed by a description of the gross anat­omy of each vascular structure described in this chapter.
31.1 Internal Carotid Artery
From an endoscopic point of view the internal carotid artery (ICA) can be divided in five segments: (1) para­pharyngeal or cervical segment, (2) petrous segment, (3) supralacerum segment, (4) cavernous segment [(a) para­clival and (b) parasellar], and (5) supracavernous segment [(a) clinoidal and (b) cisternal]. In this chapter, only the intracranial segments (3–5) (Fig. 31.1) will be described in detail, while the parapharyngeal and petrous segments will only be mentioned.

31.1.1 Parapharyngeal and Petrous Segments
The ICA starts at the common carotid artery bifurcation and runs toward the skull base, to enter the external orifice of the carotid canal of the petrous bone. The ICA is seated anteromedial to the vagus nerve and medial to the inter­nal jugular vein inside the carotid sheath. The endoscopic corridor to reach the parapharyngeal or cervical segment of the ICA is the infratemporal one and the anatomic dis­section as well as anatomy are described in more detail in Chapter 25. Once in the skull base, the ICA enters the ca­rotid canal and turns from vertical to horizontal inside the petrous bone. Then, the ICA follows a posterior-to-anterior and lateral-to-medial trajectory toward the foramen lace­rum (FL). The petrous segment of the ICA and its exposure are described in more detail in Chapter 17.
31.1.2 Supralacerum Segment
Supralacerum Segment of ICA via the Transpterygoidal Corridor
The key structure to reach endoscopically the anterior genu and supralacerum segment of the ICA is the pter­ygoid or vidian canal. The pterygoid bone lies posteri­or to the palatine bone. By drilling in a lateral direction where the pterygoid plate joins the basisphenoid, the pterygoid (vidian) canal can be identified. points toward the ICA, at the level of the supralacerum portion (anterior genu) (Fig. 31.2). The vidian nerve pass­es through the pterygoid canal running from the anterior genu of the ICA to reach the pterygopalatine ganglion in the upper portion of the pterygopalatine fossa (Fig. 31.3). The artery of the pterygoid canal (vidian artery) is not al­ways present. From an anatomic point of view, there is an anterior (from external carotid artery [ECA] system) and a posterior (from ICA system) vidian artery. However, it is possible that there is no counterpart from the max­illary artery. In this case, the artery (~0.5 mm) has been described to transverse the cartilage-filled FL to enter the pterygoid canal.
Anatomy
Once the ICA exits the petrous bone, it curves upward above the FL, thus giving the anterior genu that is not tru­ly intrapetrous. Anatomically, the FL is an opening in the dry skull that in life is filled by fibrocartilaginous tissue (fibrocartilago basalis) that is firmly attached to the ICA, eustachian tube, clivus, and petrous portion of the tem­poral bone. of the sphenoid, and medially the occipital bone. Tiny periosteal branches of the petrous ICA, the meningeal branches of the ascending pharyngeal artery, and small veins pass it. origin to the vidian artery that enters and courses into the pterygoid canal to anastomose with the same-named branch of the maxillary artery (Fig. 31.3).
