A 360-degree, multidisciplinary approach to treating cavernous sinus lesions and tumors.
Due to refinement of existing approaches and development of new ones, the cavernous sinus is no longer a barrier to surgical intervention. Nonetheless, this critical skull base
region contains densely packed oculomotor and sensory nerves and the internal carotid artery, requiring extensive anatomical knowledge and experience. The Video-Based Atlas of Modern Cavernous Sinus Surgery, edited by renowned skull-base neurosurgeons Amir R. Dehdashti and Paul A. Gardner, reflects the latest evidence-based knowledge, with contributions from multidisciplinary experts in the field.
Throughout 20 succinctly written chapters and nearly 50 videos, this unique resource encompasses all aspects of cavernous sinus surgery. Detailed anatomy and meticulous descriptions of various procedures for vascular lesions and tumors cover transcranial, endonasal, and transorbital approaches, as well as the role of radiation treatment. Discussion of complex decision making, diverse strategies, technical pearls, and
360-degree access to the cavernous sinus guides readers through managing this highly challenging anatomical space.
