We report a patient in whom we were able to make an accurate diagnosis of left carotid bulb and left internal carotid artery stenosis by carefully and slowly withdrawing the probe from the esophagus into the pharynx.

Neurosurgery, University of Illinois College of Medicine Peoria, Peoria, USA.
Petroclival approaches remain challenging given abundant cranial nerves and vessels. Common trajectories include transsphenoidal, transoral, middle fossa-extradural, and posterior through the cerebellar peduncle. We report a unique intra-axial, intradural approach to the petroclival and cavernous sinus.

Objective: This study aims to summarize the clinical characteristics of skull base osteoradionecrosis (ORN) with the internal carotid artery (ICA) involvement and to distill the key surgical techniques that can enhance the protective measures for ICA.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective, observational study over a six-year period from February 2017 to May 2023. We included patients who were diagnosed with osteoradionecrosis with invasion of the internal carotid artery and collected their demographic information, pathology results, complication rates, ect.

Background: Transnasal endoscopic decompression of the optic nerve is increasingly gaining acceptance among ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgeons, however neither strict indications for the procedure nor the precise extent of effective decompression have been firmly established to date. This study aimed to determine the distance between endoscopically visible, anatomical structures within the sphenoid sinus and the posterior (i.e.

Carotid-cavernous aneurysms (CCAs) have the potential for growth, and their risk of rupture can lead to severe complications. Treatment is typically recommended to prevent these complications, with endovascular therapy being the preferred approach due to the challenging surgical access. This case presents a rare instance of rupture of a CCA that had been previously treated with a flow-diverting stent, which resulted in the development of a carotid-cavernous fistula, requiring venous access endovascular treatment.

Aim: This study aimed to develop a multitask deep learning model for pituitary macroadenoma (PMA) segmentation and identification of cavernous sinus (CS) invasion.
Materials And Methods: A total of 926 patients with PMAs (n=816 from Institution 1 for model training and n=110 from Institution 2 for model validation) were included. Manual segmentation for tumor and bilateral internal carotid arteries was conducted on coronal contrast-enhanced T1-weighted imaging images using ITK-SNAP.
