Radical resection of a craniopharyngioma via the extradural anterior temporal approach with zygomatic arch osteotomy.

CONCLUSION: EDATA with zygomatic osteotomy ensures sufficient mobility of the internal carotid artery, and provides a good lateral and look up operative view. Hence, it can be used effectively for radical resection of craniopharyngiomas through the opticocarotid space and retrocarotid space. PMID: 28194297 [PubMed - in process]
