Anterior Skull Base Reconstruction Using a Vascularized Pericranial Flap: A Promising Alternative in Sinonasal Malignancies
This study underscores the benefits of using vascularized pericranial flaps as an alternative solution for anterior skull base reconstruction in sinonasal malignancies. The availability of the pericranial flap in the local region, along with its robust blood supply, and the positive outcomes observed in this preliminary series collectively indicate its potential as an integral component of multi-layered reconstruction techniques for addressing anterior skull base defects.
