Stereotactic frame-based biopsy of infratentorial lesions via the suboccipital-transcerebellar approach with the Zamorano-Duchovny stereotactic system —a retrospective analysis of 79 consecutive cases
ConclusionsOur data suggests that frame-based stereotactic biopsies with the Zamorano-Duchovny stereotactic system via the suboccipital-transcerebellar approach are safe and reliable for infratentorial lesions bearing a high diagnostic yield and an acceptable complication rate. Further research should focus on the planning of safe trajectories and a careful case selection with the goal of minimizing complications and maximizing diagnostic success.
