Purpose The orbital apex is the narrowest part of the orbit, housing the link between the
intracranial cavity and orbit. Knowledge of orbital apex anatomy is crucial to selecting a …

Objectives To determine the frequency, morphologic and demographic characteristics, and
clinical relevance of the mineralisation of six skull base ligaments (interclinoid …

Simple Summary The sphenoid bone occupies the central part on the skull base and forms
the floor of the middle cranial fossa where some important foramina-transmitting …

Anterior clinoidectomy is a difficult yet essential technique in skull base surgery. Two main
techniques (extradural and intradural) with multiple modifications have been proposed to …

The middle cranial fossa is one of the most complex regions in neurosurgery and
otolaryngology—in fact, the practice of skull base surgery originated from the need to treat …

Purpose The current study investigated the incidence, morphology and morphometry of the
ossified ligaments expanding between petrous bone and posterior clinoid processes and in …

Purpose: The main objective of this study was to display the morphologic properties of the
anterior clinoid process (ACP) in human fetuses in term of early childhood surgeries …

Objective The main objective of the study was to show the morphologic features of optic strut
(OS) and prechiasmatic sulcus (PS) in the fetal skull base with a surgical anatomical …

Background: The dural fold between anterior and middle clinoid processes on
mineralisation leads to the formation of caroticoclinoid foramen (CCF). Different morphology …

Advances in endoscopic technique allow for resection of the anterior clinoid process (ACP)
via an endoscopic endonasal approach. The authors discuss the endoscopic endonasal …
