  • Title: Anterior skull base reconstruction after cranio-facial resections using galeal pericranial flap.
    Author: Balagopal PG, George NA, Ajith R, Ahamed MI, Sebastian P.
    Journal: Gulf J Oncolog; 2014 Jul; 1(16):84-8. PubMed ID: 25316397.
    Abstract:
    The tumors of the anterior cranial cavity can either be malignant or benign. They usually arise in the nasal or Para nasal sinuses. Treatment of these tumors includes major craniofacial resection and reconstruction to prevent cerebrospinal fluid leak and meningitis. In this study we are presenting a technique which is simple and cost-effective. We are reporting a series of nine cases in which this technique was tried out and we found that it can be used for dural repair and anterior cranial fossa reconstruction with no major complications.
