Abstract

AIm: To assess the efficacy of the far lateral approach, without drilling of the occipital condyle, in the management of anterior intradural tumors at the craniocervical junction. Ma terIal and Methods: Ten patients suffering from foramen magnum tumors were operated upon via the far lateral approach without drilling of the occipital condyle. All patients underwent postoperative CT scan of the brain. An MRI and CT of the craniocervical junction were done 3 months postoperatively to assess the extent of tumor and bone removal respectively. Results: The far lateral approach was found adequate for complete excision in eight out of ten cases of foramen magnum tumors. In the remaining two cases, the tumors were found adherent to the brain stem so complete excision was not done. ConclusIon: The far lateral approach (without drilling of the occipital condyle) proved adequate for excision of most cases of anteriorly situated foramen magnum tumors.

Özet

ÖZ AMAÇ: Kraniovertebral bileşkede foramen magnumun anterioruna yerleşmiş tümörlerin oksipital kondilin dirillenmeden çıkarılmasının etkinliğinin araştırılması. YÖNTEM ve GEREÇLER: Foramen magnum tümörü olan 10 hastada oksipital kondil dirillenmeden far lateral yaklaşımla tümör rezeksiyonu yapıldı. Tüm hastalara ameliyat sonrası beyin tomografisi çekildi. Ameliyattan 3 ay sonra ise, tüm hastalara kraniovertebral bileşkenin manyetik rezonans görüntülemesi ve tomografisi çektirildi. Çekilen filmlerde çıkarılan kemik doku ve rezidü tümör dokusu araştırıldı. BULGULAR: Foramen magnum tümörü olan 10 hastadan 8’inde far lateral yaklaşımla tam tümör çıkarılması sağlandı. Kalan 2 vakada ise tümörün beyin sapına yapışık olması nedeni ile tam olmayan rezeksiyon yapıldı. SONUÇ: Foramen magnumun anterioruna yerleşmiş tümörlerde Oksipital kondil drillenmeden yapılan far lateral yaklaşım vakaların çoğunluğunda yeterli rezeksiyon yapılmasını sağlamıştır.
