Evolution of Skull Base Surgery: The Multidisciplinary Team Approach
https://t.me/med1917
collaboration between rhinologists and neurosurgeons, opening their minds.
Slowly but steadily, the modern endoscopic skull base surgery was developed in some centers, not without con­troversies, particularly when malignant sinonasal tumors were also started to be removed through an endoscopic approach.
3
As always in medicine, this progression occurred stepwise. First, small amenable tumors, and then, with increasing experience, larger tumors were approached. Of course, the idea to treat malignant tumors solely through the nose was scary due to the narrow entrance to the sur­gical field, the difficulties to perform a “monoblock” resec­tion, and last but not the least, the problems in achieving tumor-free margins. This led some authors to debulking or fragmenting (“disassembling”) the tumors. term, endoscopic approaches seem to achieve similar out­comes and survival rates as open ones.

In the long
Technology is increasingly allowing the expansion of the endoscopic nasal surgery, as is the number of rhi­nologists and neurosurgeons involved in endoscopic multidisciplinary teams. High-definition cameras have replaced traditional cameras. Furthermore, the advent of high-definition monitors, translating into an increased pixel density, offers the surgeon better color, contrast, resolution, and peripheral visualization of the surgical field.
This, together with the increasing experience of the teams, particularly the groups from Pittsburgh (Kassam, Carrau and coworkers) and Italy (Cappabianca, Casteln­uovo and Locatelli, Frank and Pasquini), led to the devel­opment of different surgical corridors in the coronal and sagittal planes, with the rule of never to cross nerves and/ or the internal carotid artery, and expanded the endona­sal corridors, as can be studied in the different chapters of this book, from the anterior skull base to the middle and posterior cranial fossae.
The major challenge encountered was in reconstruct­ing those large skull base defects left after extended approaches. Postoperative CSF leakages, with the risk of ascending bacterial meningitis subsequently increasing, were among the most frequent complications feared. To minimize that risk, the incorporation of pedicle flaps into the armamentarium of skull base reconstruction can be considered a milestone. The nasoseptal flap described by Hadad et al in 2006 definitely opened the door to more transnasal surgeries of the skull base, reducing the risk of CSF leaks significantly.
35
Since then, other local nasal flaps such as lateral wall flap and regional flaps, for example, the pericranial flap, were extremely helpful to recon­struct even after endoscopic resections of large tumors.
The aim of this book is to recollect and thoroughly describe all anatomic aspects and possibilities of trans­nasal endoscopic surgery of the paranasal sinus, as this will serve to understand more extended approaches. Here, important vascular structures, such as the eth­moidal arteries or the internal maxillary and spheno­palatine artery, plus its branches, deserve a chapter on its own. The next block deals with the anterior cranial fossa, analyzing all the different approaches to the ante­rior skull and brain, from the transcribriform to the tran­sorbital approach, including also the sella and suprasella spaces, and the cavernous sinus. We then move laterally toward the middle cranial fossa, focusing on the quad­rangular space, the intrapetrous artery, and the anterior petrosectomy. The next group of chapters is related to the clivus and posterior cranial fossa corridors, including the
retrosellar, the transclival, the craniovertebral junction, the transcondylar, and the jugular foramen approaches. After that, the approaches to the pterygopalatine and infratemporal fossa are described, including the naso­pharyngectomy. The last chapters address combined en­doscopic and transcranial approaches, basic landmarks in expanded endoscopic skull base surgery, particularly bony landmarks and the internal carotid artery, and re­construction techniques.

Introduction
In recent years, advances in computer technology and medical imaging techniques have acquired a significant impact on different branches of surgery, medical edu­cation, and research. In the fields of neurosurgery and otorhinolaryngology, progress in neuroimaging stud­ies, such as high-resolution computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging studies, and digital subtraction angiography data, has certainly refined the visualization of anatomic structures within the brain and the skull. At the same time, the evolution of minimally invasive techniques and the introduction of the endo­scope have led to endoscopic endonasal (EE) approaches rapidly becoming the standard of care for pituitary and other skull base tumors, thus requiring the acquisition of new surgical skills. Even experienced neurosurgeons and rhinologists face a steep learning curve in EE approach­es, as the operation is performed through a tight space, where both the lack of maneuverability and the conven­tional mucosal bleeding may hinder the visualization of the surgical field. An additional burden is represented by the lack of stereoscopic vision of most endoscopes. Even though the advent of three-dimensional (3D) scopes in endonasal surgery has improved depth perception, such new tools still face difficulties in hand–eye coordination. For such reasons, endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery can take a long time to learn and execute, especially for those surgeons not fully confident with the scope.
Anatomic cadaveric dissection has been, for many years, the only training tool available for guiding the improvement of technical skills in endoscopic transsphe­noidal surgery. However, during the last decade, with the diffusion of 3D computer-generated models that provide accurate patient-specific 3D reconstructions from neu­roimaging data, allowing interaction with such models, and the simulation of the different steps of the surgical intervention, the training in EE neurosurgery has gained further developments.
Combined with anatomic laboratory dissection, 3D computer-based reconstructions represent a unique opportunity for research and educational purposes when applied to the transsphenoidal perspective, guiding the acquisition of specific visual information for endoscopic approaches to the skull base.
helical acquisition protocol, with 0.625-mm slice thickness, using a gantry angle of 0 degrees. The images obtained were stored into the hospital PACS (Picture Archiving and Com­munication System) network in a DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) format.
2.1.2 Anatomic Cadaveric Dissection
All dissections were performed in the Laboratory of Sur­gical NeuroAnatomy (LSNA), at the University of Barcelona, Spain. The position of the head on the dissection table was adjusted to match the usual position in the operat­ing room, to better emulate a true surgical intervention. An EE transsphenoidal approach to the midline skull base was performed in three specimens using a rigid 0-degree endoscope, 18 cm in length and 4 mm in diameter (Karl Storz Endoscopy), as the sole visualizing instrument during the whole procedure.
2.1.3 Image Processing: Generating a Virtual 3D Model
The 3D model was developed from the CT scans of the anatomic specimens (postdissection CT), using a specific software for visualization and manipulation of biomedi­cal data (Amira Visage Imaging Inc.). The 3D reconstruc­tions of the bone volume of each surgical procedure were compared with those obtained in the dissection laborato­ry. The methodology followed at the LSNA to generate the 3D models is described in detail elsewhere.

2.2 Simulation of the Diff erent Steps of the EE Approach
In the present section, the main steps usually used to reach the midline skull base through a ventral approach are described. Specifically, the EE approach using dif­ferent computer-based 3D models generated from the high-resolution CT scans is modeled in a step-by-step sequence, including the different nasal steps, sphenoidal and extended approaches, corridors to the ventral brainstem.

2.1.1 Data Acquisition (Predissection CT Scan)
A CT scan (SOMATOM Sensation 64; Siemens AG) of each specimen was performed prior to each dissection at the Department of Neuroradiology, Hospital Clinic, Barcelona. The heads were positioned in the scanner according to the Frankfurt plane. All studies were performed with a multislice

2.2.1 Nasal Steps
Once the endoscope is progressively introduced through the nostrils, the nasal vestibule, and the piriform aperture, a general view of the nasal cavity is obtained. The key nasal structures to be identified include the nasal septum (S), the head of the inferior (IT) and middle turbinates (MT), and the respective inferior and middle meati (Fig. 2.1).
In a second step, a bilateral middle turbinectomy (MT, triangulated models) is performed to allow a wide expo­sure (Fig. 2.2). Once both middle turbinates are removed, the bulla ethmoidalis (BE, Fig. 2.3) is easily identified.

In a third step, a septectomy is performed. This is accomplished by the resection of the posterior part of the nasal septum (S, triangulated model) (Fig. 2.3).
The removal of the nasal septum may require the disar­ticulation of the sphenoidal crest from the perpendicular plate of ethmoid (Fig. 2.4).
In a fourth step, a bilateral ethmoidotomy is performed. It is important to avoid damaging the lamina papyracea (Fig. 2.5).
The final nasal step of the approach corresponds to an anterior sphenoidotomy. Once the anterior wall of the sphenoid is removed, several sphenoid septa can be observed within the sphenoid sinus. These septa could maintain a very close relationship with the internal ca­rotid artery, so their removal must be performed very carefully (Fig. 2.6).
and the clivus (C). Laterally, prominences correspond­ing to the optic nerve (OP), the internal carotid artery (CP), the opticocarotid recess in between (OCR), and the paraclival carotid prominence (CPc) can be found (Fig. 2.7).
From the sphenoid sinus, different extended approaches have been described to access different compartments of the midline skull base. These include the transcribiform (red), the transplanum/transtuber­culum (pale blue), the sellar (yellow), the transclival (dark blue), the craniovertebral junction (purple), and the lateral cavernous sinus (green) approaches (Fig. 2.8).

2.2.2 Transsphenoidal and Extended Approaches
Within the posterior wall of the sphenoid sinus, several critical landmarks must be identified. At the midline, the “suprasellar notch” can be seen or the tuberculum sellae (TS) as viewed from below, the sellar floor (SF),
The transclival EE approach allows access to the ventral and ventrolateral surfaces of the brainstem and related cisternal through three anatomically defined subregions: cranial (green box), middle (blue box), and caudal (yellow box) levels. Each of these levels shows a close relationship with standard surgical corridors established via the retro­sigmoid route (Fig. 2.9).
