Skull Base Surgery for Lesion Access

The provider accesses the posterior cranial fossa, jugular foramen, or midline skull base using a transpetrosal approach. If needed, the surgeon also ligates the superior petrosal sinus and/or sigmoid sinus to better access the lesion or defect. The selection of a particular approach will depend on the location and size of the lesion. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
