ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibromas (JNAs) are rare, benign, and locally invasive nasopharyngeal tumors. Endoscopic endonasal resection is effective, non-invasive, with low complication rates. Until recently, endoscopic resection was not suitable for intracranially invasive tumors. PURPOSE/METHOD:
We describe resection steps of an intracranially extending JNA with a combined endoscopic endonasal and endoscopic-assisted sublabial transmaxillary approaches. Indications, advantages, and approach-specific complications are also discussed. The main surgical steps are shown in an operative video.CONCLUSION:
Surgical excision of JNAs by a combined endoscopic endonasal and sublabial transmaxillary approaches represents a safe and effective treatment for selected intracranially invasive JNA.Palavras-chave
