Extended endoscopic endonasal approach for the resection of third ventricular craniopharyngiomas: A technical case report
The extended endoscopic endonasal approach is a safe and effective technique for the resection of suprasellar and third ventricular CPs, offering direct access while avoiding brain retraction. Dural suturing plays a key role in skull base reconstruction, reducing the risk of postoperative CSF leakage.
