Efficacy of simultaneous pericranial and nasoseptal “double flap” reconstruction of anterior skull base defects after combined transbasal and endoscopic endonasal approaches
ConclusionThe simultaneous PCF and NSF double flap reconstruction is an effective technique in preventing postoperative CSF leakage and post-radiation necrosis when repairing anterior skull base defects after combined transbasal-EEA approaches. This technique may be useful in patients anticipated to undergo postoperative radiation therapy.
