Novel Strategies for Expanding the Endoscopic Caudal Access to the Craniovertebral Junction: A Cadaveric Comparative Analysis of Nasofrontal Trephination and Posterior Palatectomy

Both CNT and PP techniques significantly enhance the surgical corridor of traditional EEA for CVJ access. A CNT afforded superior surgical exposure while maintaining minimal invasiveness. PP offers a viable alternative when external incisions are undesired and lesions are confined within the C2-C3 level.

Abstract

Both CNT and PP techniques significantly enhance the surgical corridor of traditional EEA for CVJ access. A CNT afforded superior surgical exposure while maintaining minimal invasiveness. PP offers a viable alternative when external incisions are undesired and lesions are confined within the C2-C3 level.
