Abstrakt: This article examines the relationship between patient age and clinical characteristics and outcomes in endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) for pediatric skull base neurosurgery. The study analyzes data from a single pediatric center over a 23-year period. The research finds that there are age-dependent differences in pathology, with younger patients more likely to have certain types of tumors and older patients more likely to have others. However, the study concludes that EES can be safely performed in patients of all age ranges, with no significant difference in complication rates. [Extracted from the article]
