Publication Date:

Abstract:
The endoscopic endonasal approach has recently been added to the surgical armamentarium to access the anterior craniovertebral junction (CVJ). Comparative analyses with the transoral approach are scarce. The aim of this study was to provide a quantitative anatomical analysis of both approaches.
