  • Title: Frontolateral keyhole craniotomy through a superciliary skin incision in children.
    Author: Bognár L, Czirják S, Madarassy G.
    Journal: Childs Nerv Syst; 2003 Nov; 19(10-11):765-8. PubMed ID: 12739035.
    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: In our experience, frontolateral keyhole craniotomy in children is a safe approach for an experienced neurosurgeon to use in the treatment of the tumors or arachnoid cysts of the anterior fossa and sellar regions. TECHNICAL NOTE: The authors describe the frontolateral keyhole craniotomy, which is a modification of the generally used pterional approach. The operations were carried out through an approximately 2.5 x 3-cm frontolateral miniaturized craniotomy after a skin incision just above the eyebrow. We adopted this technique in pediatric neurosurgery.
