Abstract :

Access to the lesions locating in the clival and craniocervical area is always one of the most debating approaches for the most neurosurgeons and the spine surgeons, according to high mortality and morbidity rate. On the other hand, minimal invasive endoscopic approaches are going to be more popular between new generations of neurosurgeons. In this article, we are going to discuss more about endoscopic endonasal technique and advantages with reviewing cases with pathologies in the cranial cervical region including tumors and congenital malformations.
