Skull Base Techniques for Senior Residents-Designing a Posterolateral Skull Base Approach: Designing a Posterior Fossa Approach

Designing a Posterolateral Skull Base Approach: Designing a Posterior Fossa Approach

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses different approaches to designing a posterior fossa surgery. They mention the posterior trans-petrosal approach and briefly discuss other approaches such as the retro-sigmoid, far-lateral trans-condylar, midline, and middle fossa approaches. The speaker also describes specific cases and demonstrates the surgical procedures involved in each approach, such as mastoidectomy, dural incisions, and sectioning of the superior petrosal sinus. The video emphasizes the importance of careful dissection and consideration of the anatomy and pathology of each case. No credits were given in the video.
