Endoscopic Endonasal Repair of Spontaneous Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks Using Multilayer Composite Graft and Vascularized Pedicled Nasoseptal Flap Technique.

Background: Endoscopic repair of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) fistulas is a fundamental practice in anterior skull base surgery due to high success rates and low morbidity profile. However, spontaneous CSF (sCSF) leaks have the highest recurrence rate compared to other etiologies. The most effective management is undetermined due to variations in graft materials and limited evidence.

Open Versus Endoscopic Approach for Sinonasal Melanoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Background: Open resection (OR) of sinonasal mucosal melanoma (SNM) traditionally has been the gold standard for treatment. However, endoscopic resection (ER) has recently become a surgical alternative. The aim of this study was to compare survival outcomes between OR and ER of SNM.
