“…11,14 It is also widely used in the resection of other extrasellar extra-axial lesions including craniopharyngiomas, dermoid tumors, meningiomas, and chordomas. [8][9][10]12,13,15,[17][18][19] However, experience with this technique in the treatment of intraaxial lesions with critical neurovascular relationship is limited, so traditionally an open technique is preferred. 14,20 The role of the endoscopic transnasal approach in intra-axial lesions, lesions with intra-axial extension, large tumors, and lesions with peritumoral edema is controversial.…”

“…This approach is currently mostly used in pituitary adenomas and other extra-axial lesions such as meningioma, dermoid tumors, and craniopharyngioma. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Some published reports recently demonstrated useful utilization of this approach for the resection of intra-axial lesions. 6,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] We present the case of an 18-year-old young woman who underwent a successful endoscopic transnasal resection of a suprasellar teratoma with a mixed germ cell component.…”

“…3,34 To date, the only case series dedicated to this topic was provided by Formichev et al, who reported radiological GTR in 5 of 6 patients with chiasmatic-region ECs with no recurrences noted during a mean follow-up of 42 months. 19 Complications in this series included postoperative CSF leak in 1 patient, meningitis in 2 patients, and new anterior pituitary insufficiency in 1 patient. Aside from the series by Fomichev et al, no long-term data on the topic of EEA for resection of ECs in the suprasellar region are available.…”

“…The benefits of the EEA to access various alternative pathologies of the ventral cranial base have been well described. 3,33,34 While isolated case reports and small case series exist that describe the utility of these approaches in the resection of ECs of the cranial base, 11,17,19,35 there is an overall paucity of information in the literature regarding this surgical option, especially regarding ventral ECs of the posterior fossa. Thus, we sought to describe the clinical presentation and surgical outcomes of 7 consecutive patients with ventral ECs of the cranial base treated using the EEA.…”

“…The process corresponds to $ 0.2 to 1.8% of all primary intracranial tumors and are 4 to 9 times as common as dermoid cysts. [1][2][3][4] Most ECs compromising the central nervous system (CNS) are extraaxial, leptomeningeal lesions, with the cerebellopontine angle (40-50% of patients) being the most common location. Epidermoid cysts can also be found in the 4 th ventricle (17%), in the sellar/parasellar region (10-15%), in the cerebral hemispheres, in the brainstem, in the skull, and in the spine.…”
