Keyhole concept in cerebral aneurysm clipping and tumor removal by the supraciliary lateral supraorbital approach

Abstract: The keyhole concept in neurosurgery is designed to minimize the craniotomy needed for the access route to deep intracranial pathologies. Such keyhole surgeries cause less trauma and can be less invasive than conventional surgical techniques. Among the various types of keyhole mini-craniotomy, supraorbital or lateral supraorbital mini-craniotomy is the standard and basic keyhole approaches. The lateral supraorbital keyhole provides adequate working space in the suprasellar to parasellar areas and planum sphenoi… Show more

“…It is generally accepted that keyhole approach is suitable for aneurysmal clipping. 26 The main problem of the keyhole approach for poor-grade ruptured aneurysm is whether ideal relaxation of the brain tissue and the exposure of the aneurysm and its parent artery can be easily achieved during operation. Hydrocephalus and brain edema will hamper the relaxation of the brain tissue, which is associated with intraoperative CSF drainage.…”

“…Figueiredo et al 5 demonstrated that the work area (area of exposure and working angle) in pterional mini-craniotomy is equivalent to classical access. Recent publications report the use of minimal accesses in cases of ruptured aneurysms, especially in cases of minor aneurysms and simple morphology 10,11 .…”
