Evolution Of The Intracranial Approaches To Jugular Foramen Tumors: A Surgeon's Personal Perspective Through Three Illustrative Cases., Walter C. Jean Md, Daniel Felbaum Mar 2016

Evolution Of The Intracranial Approaches To Jugular Foramen Tumors: A Surgeon's Personal Perspective Through Three Illustrative Cases., Walter C. Jean Md, Daniel Felbaum

Department of Surgery

Tumors of the jugular foramen remain challenging lesions despite advances in surgical technique and medical technology. Tumors with extensive extra- and intracranial components necessitate both radical neck dissection maneuvers combined with skull base approaches. We present a single surgeon's perspective in managing these difficult tumors.


Endoscope-Assisted Combined Supracerebellar Infratentorial And Endoscopic Transventricular Approach To The Pineal Region: A Technical Note., Daniel Felbaum, Hasan R Syed, Joshua E Ryan, Walter C. Jean, Amjad Anaizi Mar 2016

Endoscope-Assisted Combined Supracerebellar Infratentorial And Endoscopic Transventricular Approach To The Pineal Region: A Technical Note., Daniel Felbaum, Hasan R Syed, Joshua E Ryan, Walter C. Jean, Amjad Anaizi

Department of Surgery

Neoplasms of the pineal region comprise less than 2% of all intracranial lesions. A variety of techniques have been adapted to gain access to the pineal region. Classic approaches employ the use of the microscope. More recently, the endoscope has been utilized to improve access to such deep-seated lesions. A 62-year-old female presented with a heterogeneously enhancing lesion in the pineal region with associated hydrocephalus. On exam, the patient exhibited Parinaud's syndrome. The patient initially underwent a single burr hole endoscopic third ventriculostomy and biopsy of the lesion. Initial pathology was consistent with a grade III astrocytoma. Following a period …


Simultaneous Transventricular-Orbitocranial Resection Of Large Suprasellar Craniopharyngioma As Inspired By Jackson's Maneuver From 1863., Walter C. Jean, Hasan R Syed, Daniel Felbaum, Joshua E Ryan, Amjad Anaizi Mar 2016

Simultaneous Transventricular-Orbitocranial Resection Of Large Suprasellar Craniopharyngioma As Inspired By Jackson's Maneuver From 1863., Walter C. Jean, Hasan R Syed, Daniel Felbaum, Joshua E Ryan, Amjad Anaizi

Department of Surgery

Traditional skull base techniques utilizing the microscope have allowed surgeons improved safe access to deep-seated lesions. More recent technical advances with the endoscope have allowed improved visibility and access to these previously difficult-to-reach regions. Most current literature emphasizes one technique over the other. We present a unique hybrid-type approach that tackles this not-infrequent surgical dilemma. This hybrid-type surgery resulted in a new technique that is a confluence of both open microsurgery and skull base corridors with an endoscope. Furthermore, a combined ventriculoscope approach adds extended assistance with resection. We detail the utility of this technique. A patient presented with a …
