Mandibular Fossa Approach to Petroclival and Anterior Pontine Lesions
Conclusions The mandibular fossa approach is a new trajectory to the petroclival region and the anterior pons. It combines the more anterior angle of endoscopic approaches along with the enhanced control of open approaches. Further study is necessary before this approach is used clinically.

Long-Term Outcomes of Endoscopic Resection versus Open Surgery for Locally Advanced Sinonasal Malignancies in Combination with Radiotherapy
Conclusion For patients with locally advanced SNMs, minimally invasive endoscopic resection, in combination with a higher radiation dose and new radiation techniques such as IMRT, yields survival outcomes similar to those of open surgery in combination with radiotherapy.

The RAPID Consortium: A Platform for Clinical and Translational Pituitary Tumor Research
Conclusion The RAPID consortium has laid the foundation for a multicenter collaboration to facilitate pituitary tumor and surgical research. We sought to share our experiences so that other groups also contemplating this approach may benefit. Future studies may include outcomes benchmarking, clinically annotated biobank tissue, multicenter outcomes studies, prospective intervention studies, translational research, and health economics studies focused on value-based care questions.

Facial Nerve Schwannoma Treatment with Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) versus Resection followed by SRS: Outcomes and a Management Protocol
Conclusion While resection is still needed for larger tumors, SRS offers better clinical and radiological outcomes compared to resection followed by SRS for facial schwannomas. Younger age, smaller tumors, and non-IAC situated tumors are factors that portend a favorable outcome.

Survey of Skull Base Surgeons' Approach to Carcinomas Involving the Cavernous Sinus
Conclusion Overall, most of the surgeons surveyed were unwilling to offer CSE for carcinomatous cavernous sinus invasion, whether for primary disease or recurrence. Given the rarity of these tumors and the limited data on CSE, these results may provide more information for clinicians and patients for these treatment decisions.

Anatomical Step-by-Step Dissection of Complex Skull Base Approaches for Trainees: Surgical Anatomy of the Endoscopic Endonasal and Endoscopic-Assisted Transmaxillary Transpterygoid Approaches
Conclusion Despite the steep learning curve of the EETPA, granular knowledge of its surgical anatomy and basic surgical steps are vital for those advancing their learning in complex endoscopic approaches to the ventral skull base when expanding the approach laterally in the coronal plane.

A Decade of Global Skull Base Researchers: Gender Data from over 2,700 Abstract Authors in the Journal of Neurological Surgery Part B: Skull Base
Conclusion The NASBS' efforts have undoubtedly contributed to these impressive strides toward gender parity. More work is needed to ensure that the best and the brightest, regardless of background, continue to contribute to skull base surgery research.

Predictors and Complications of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak after Endoscopic Endonasal Surgery: A Single Institution Retrospective Review
Conclusion Sellar defect size, intraoperative CSF leak, and nasoseptal flap use were associated with an increased risk of postoperative CSF leak. Intraoperative CSF leak, Cushing's disease, and lumbar drain placement are all associated with an increased length of stay.

A Novel Craniocervical Junction Compression Severity Index-Based Grading System for Multidirectional Quantification of the Biomechanics at Foramen Magnum of Chiari Malformation Type I
Conclusions The CVJCSI can be used to stratify CMI patients. The higher the CVJCSI grade, the more severer the CVJ compression and the worse posterior fossa deformity. Meanwhile, the CVJCSI was negatively correlated with the CCOS. The lower the CVJCSI grade, the better the response to surgery, and the less-invasive surgical procedure were warranted. Finally, the prospective cohort study validated the proposed CVJCSI-based surgical protocols.

The State of Machine Learning in Outcomes Prediction of Transsphenoidal Surgery: A Systematic Review
J Neurol Surg B Skull Base DOI: 10.1055/a-1941-3618The purpose of this analysis is to assess the use of machine learning (ML) algorithms in the prediction of postoperative outcomes, including complications, recurrence, and death in transsphenoidal surgery. Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, we systematically reviewed all papers that used at least one ML algorithm to predict outcomes after transsphenoidal surgery. We searched Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science databases for studies published prior to May 12, 2021. We identified 13 studies enrolling 5,048 patient...
