ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The endoscopic transorbital approach provides a direct access to the medial temporal lobe (MTL). However, when excising a highly vascular tumour, a wider access route that enables the concurrent use of standard neurosurgical instruments with both hands is preferable.METHOD:
We described the concept and technique of the lateral orbital wall approach (LOWA), which comprises orbitotomy and mini-craniotomy to treat MTL lesions using an exoscope and endoscope.CONCLUSION:
The LOWA provides a safe and natural surgical corridor to the MTL and enables 2- or 3-hand surgery. Hence, LOWA can potentially improve safety and efficiency to treat MTL lesions.Palavras-chave
