J Neurol Surg B Skull Base
February 2025
Department of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California, United States.
Transpterygoid approaches to the skull base require dissection of the sphenopalatine artery, potentially compromising the option to harvest an ipsilateral nasoseptal flap (NSF) for reconstruction. In cases where other reconstructive options are limited, it may be necessary to utilize a NSF ipsilateral to the transpterygoid approach. Here, we describe the technique of NSF pedicle preservation with reconstruction outcomes.
