Endoscopic endonasal transorbital approach has been described for the removal of orbital lesions located anteromedially in temporal fossa. The same has been observed to be a versatile approach to the anterior and middle cranial fossa only in laboratory studies. This is the first clinical report of combined transorbital transnasal endoscopic approach to the cavernous sinus, superior orbital fissure, and middle cranial fossa in a case of recurrent nasopharyngeal angiofibroma using the three-surgeon six-handed technique.

Background: Advances in digital imaging including evolving of 3-dimensional (3D) exoscope has allowed its use as an alternative to microscopes in neurosurgery. The exoscope can concede wide space around the operating table and patient. Here, we show a three-surgeon-six-hand operative approach using a 4K-3D exoscope.
