Skull Base Lesion Surgery Approaches

The provider accesses the posterior cranial fossa, jugular foramen, or midline skull base using a transtemporal approach. This can include a mastoidectomy and/or decompression of the sigmoid sinus and/or facial nerve. The selection of a particular approach will depend on the location and size of the lesion.
