ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is presentation of 3 cases reconstructive surgery of the skull base after craniocerebral injury. INJURIES AND METHODS: Extensive injuries of the skull base result in communication with paranasal cavities. DIAGNOSTICS: The most serious part of the operation is the isolation of the liquor space from the external environment. Reconstruction surgeries of the skull base have significantly improved in recent years due to development of new methods in diagnostics and treatment. 3D CT reconstruction has proven to be particularly valuable for the verification of liquorea even in patients with inactive liquorea at the time of examination, as well as in patients with no CT defects or with normal MR finding. TREATMENT: The use of firm and shapeable materials extends the possibilities of reconstruction surgery, the spectrum of surgical methods and approaches for extensive injuries of the skull base (Fig. 9, Ref. 3) Full Text (Free, PDF) www.bmj.sk.
