RESUMEN
The past decade has witnessed rapid advancements in various surgical techniques for the clivus and surrounding structures. However, effective treatment of this region still poses significant challenges for neurosurgeons. The advent of endoscopic surgical procedure has reshaped skull base surgery in recent years. We present the rare case of a 67-year-old male gunshot victim who underwent endoscopic endonasal removal of a bullet lodged in the anterior lower clivus. The patient did not receive prophylactic antibiotic therapy. Based on this case, we propose that the endonasal endoscopic approach is highly advantageous for removing foreign bodies from the clivus. Furthermore, intraoperative navigation facilitates rapid lesion identification and reduces the surgical duration.
