ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the surgery effect of removal of tuberculum sellae meningiomas by anterior interhemispheric approach.Methods The data of 18 cases of removal of tuberculum sellae meningiomas by anterior interhemispheric approach were analyzed retrospectively.Results Simpson grade Ⅰ resection was achieved in 5 cases;grade Ⅱ in 10 cases and grade Ⅲ in 3 cases.15 patients were followed up for 6 months to 7 years,3.1 years on average.6 patients recovered normal ability in work and life,6 patients' symptom was improved after sugery,3 patients' postoperative visual acuity remained unchanged,2 patients got the result of medium disability and 1 patient died.Conclusion Large tuberculum sellae meningiomas that grows anteriorly and superiorly can be well exposed through anterior interhemispheric approach,the amount of page pull is reduced,so the satisfactory sugical effect can be achieved.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical significance of treating severe patients with frontal lobe and temple lobe with enlarging pterion approach operation. Methods All the severe patients with frontal lobe and temple lobe injury were divided into two groups at random. One group adopted the standard large trauma craniotomy, the other group adopted enlarging pterion approach operation. Under the same conditions, score of GCS, patients ages in two groups were analyzed. And we compare their operation results. Results Compared the standard large trauma cranioto-my,the good recover rates rise 9.2% (P < 0.05) and the death rate reduce 10.2% (P < 0.05) by using the enlarging pterion approach operation. Conclusion The enlarging pterion approach operation could improve existing quality and decrease mortality and disabled rate in patients with severe brain injury in frontal lobe and temple lobe.
