Introduction Neurosurgery is one of the most complex surgical disciplines where
psychomotor skills and deep anatomical and neurological knowledge find their maximum …

Background: This study was designed to define the detailed anatomical relations of the
jugular bulb with the facial nerve, sigmoid sinus, otic capsule, and internal acoustic canal …

Background: During craniotomies using the transpetrosal-presigmoid approach, exposure of
the sigmoid sinus remains an essential but hazardous step. In such procedures, accurate …

The location of burr holes in posterolateral cranial base approaches should be appropriate
to provide an adequate operative field, and surgical freedom is crucial for bone window …

Background: measuring intracranial pressure (ICP) is considered the gold standard of care
for brain injury. While supratentorial ICP monitoring has been adopted everywhere, posterior …

Purpose There is no study exploring the positional relationship between the external
acoustic meatus (EAM) and the sigmoid sinus (SS) in detail. The present study aimed to …

Dural sinuses have critical importance during intracranial approaches. Detailed anatomical
knowledge of the dural sinuses is crucial for surgeons to reduce unexpected venous …
