A Successful Control of the Intraoperative Bleeding from McConnell's Artery during Fully Endoscopic Resection of Planum Sphenoidale Meningioma Using Bone Chip and Bioglue : A Case Report.

The endoscopic transsphenoidal approach is a common approach used in skull base neurosurgery to reach the sellar region. One of the intraoperative risks of this approach is intraoperative bleeding out of the carotid artery. Gentle drilling can prevent carotid artery injury.

Transglabellar Butterfly Incision for Anterior Cranial Vault Access: Case Report.

(1) Background: The transglabellar approach, a type of transfacial technique, typically involves glabellar resection and opening the frontal sinus via a bicoronal incision, providing access to the anterior cranial vault. To prevent complications, the frontal sinus is typically obliterated. However, the success of transnasal endoscopic techniques has prompted a re-evaluation of these traditional methods.

Patient-derived tumor organoids mimic treatment-induced DNA damage response in glioblastoma.

Glioblastoma (GB) is the most common primary malignant brain tumor, characterized by resistance to therapy. Despite aggressive treatment options, GB remains an incurable disease. Invasiveness and heterogeneity are key GB features that cannot be studied in preclinical models.

A Multidisciplinary Skull Base Board for Tumour and Non-Tumour Diseases: Initial Experiences.

The skull base is the area where various cancerous and non-cancerous diseases occur and represents the intersection of several medical fields. The key is an integrated treatment by specialists of multiple disciplines. We prospectively analysed patients with a skull base disease between August 2022 and 2023 and presented to the Multidisciplinary Skull Base Board (MDT-SB), which takes place once a month hybridly (in-person and remotely).
