The article discusses the Retrosigmoid Approach with Endoscopic-Assisted Reverse Anterior Petrosectomy (RAP), a surgical technique used to treat lesions in the brain. The study examines the extent of access to Meckel's cave (MC) and the middle cranial fossa (MCF) during the procedure and provides guidance for protecting the internal carotid artery (ICA). The researchers performed dissections on anatomical specimens and measured various distances to MC and ICA. The results suggest that extended inferolateral drilling of the petrous apex provides greater access to MC, but carries a higher risk of injury to the ICA. The article recommends drilling in an anterior and superior direction to achieve better MCF access and avoid ICA injury. [Extracted from the article] |
