Abstract

Purpose

Resection of skull base malignancies that would have been associated with unacceptable morbidity and mortality in the past are now performed with reliable results due in large part to advancements in reconstructive surgery. The goal of this review is to describe the best evidence-based methods of reconstruction following open surgery for skull base tumors in order to attain improved outcomes for patients.

Methods

A review of recent studies involving reconstruction following open skull base surgeries was performed.

Results

Free flaps are now the most commonly recommended method for reconstruction following open skull base surgery, although pedicled regional flaps such as the temporalis muscle, supraclavicular, and submental flaps may be good alternatives in specific cases. Recent series suggest high reconstructive free flap survival rates and low levels of recipient site complications, including neurosurgical complications such as cerebrospinal fluid leak. The location of the resection defect predicts the reconstructive challenges and guides pedicled and free flap selection.

Conclusion

Refinements in flap selection and reconstructive technique continue to improve patient outcomes and decrease complication rates following open surgery for skull base malignancies.

Sozialer Aufstieg verringert Demenzgefahr

24.05.2024 Demenz Nachrichten

Ein hohes soziales Niveau ist mit die beste Versicherung gegen eine Demenz. Noch geringer ist das Demenzrisiko für Menschen, die sozial aufsteigen: Sie gewinnen fast zwei demenzfreie Lebensjahre. Umgekehrt steigt die Demenzgefahr beim sozialen Abstieg.

Hirnblutung unter DOAK und VKA ähnlich bedrohlich

17.05.2024 Direkte orale Antikoagulanzien Nachrichten

Kommt es zu einer nichttraumatischen Hirnblutung, spielt es keine große Rolle, ob die Betroffenen zuvor direkt wirksame orale Antikoagulanzien oder Marcumar bekommen haben: Die Prognose ist ähnlich schlecht.

Was nützt die Kraniektomie bei schwerer tiefer Hirnblutung?

17.05.2024 Hirnblutung Nachrichten

Eine Studie zum Nutzen der druckentlastenden Kraniektomie nach schwerer tiefer supratentorieller Hirnblutung deutet einen Nutzen der Operation an. Für überlebende Patienten ist das dennoch nur eine bedingt gute Nachricht.

Thrombektomie auch bei großen Infarkten von Vorteil

16.05.2024 Ischämischer Schlaganfall Nachrichten

Auch ein sehr ausgedehnter ischämischer Schlaganfall scheint an sich kein Grund zu sein, von einer mechanischen Thrombektomie abzusehen. Dafür spricht die LASTE-Studie, an der Patienten und Patientinnen mit einem ASPECTS von maximal 5 beteiligt waren.
