Endoscopic Transorbital Approach for Sphenoorbital Meningiomas: First Colombian Case Reports

Acceso Cerrado

Abstract:

Introduction: Tumors involving the sphenoidal wings may present with major involvement of the orbit and the middle cranial fossa. These locations represent a surgical challenge, requiring careful selection of the surgical approach. When involving the orbit or its fissures, meningiomas may present with proptosis, restriction of eye movements and decline of visual acuity. Endoscopic transorbital surgery has become an effective and less invasive surgical technique for the treatment of orbital and middle cranial fossa tumors, demonstrating a safer profile and same oncological results as a conventional approach. We present the first two cases of transorbital approach for management of sphenoorbital meningiomas in Colombia.
