Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery

Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery stands out as a groundbreaking advancement in the realm of medical interventions. This minimally invasive technique has become the preferred choice for many patients due to its reduced risk, quicker recovery, and improved outcomes. The procedure is conducted through the nasal passages, allowing surgeons to access and treat conditions at the skull base with great precision.

During the procedure, an endoscope—a rigid tube containing a camera and light source—is utilized to provide real-time visualization of the injured area. By employing this innovative technique, the damage to neighboring tissues and structures is minimized, resulting in decreased suffering and shorter hospital stays.
