An Illustrative Review of Common Modern Craniotomies - PMC
A subtemporal approach provides access to the middle fossa and petroclival areas and basal cisterns and superior clivus. The subtemporal approach can be combined with an anterior petrosectomy for lesions at the tip of the petrous bone and for those involving the middle clivus superior to the internal auditory canal.

Temporal/Subtemporal Craniotomy Free - Neurosurgical Atlas
A subtemporal craniotomy is more versatile and exposes various neoplastic and tumorous intradural and extradural pathologies of the middle fossa floor, anterior basal cisterns, and upper clivus.
Subtemporal Approach and Its Infratentorial Extension: Review …
2022年1月11日 · The subtemporal approach provides the shortest and the most direct access to the posterior cerebral artery. This approach, often without infratentorial extension can be applied to treat the posterior cerebral artery aneurysms up to the P3 segment of the artery.
Lateral approaches to the skull base - PMC
Subtemporal approach (subtemporal-extraduraltransapex approach, middle cranial fossa approach) The gate of entry of this approach is a temporal craniotomy of about 4 x 5 cm. The surgical corridor runs below the temporal lobe, above the petrous bone, and the target is the anterior and posterior aspect of the petrous bone and apex 9 21 26 .

2018年9月28日 · Temporal craniotomies had offered surgical corridor to the various lesions situated in middle cranial fossa. By the 1960s, subtemporal approach entered in flourishing period by Drake’s pioneering work of surgical treatment for more than 1700 basilar and posterior circulation aneurysms.
The Subtemporal Approach to the Lateral Midbrain with and …
The subtemporal approach provides a narrow operative corridor to the crus cerebrum and adjacent structures of the crural, interpeduncular, and ambient cistern. Addition of a zygomatic osteotomy widens this narrow corridor and spares retraction of the temporal lobe.
Infratemporal fossa approach: the modified zygomatico …
The infratemporal fossa (ITF) is an anatomical lateral skull base space composed by the zygoma, temporal, and the greater wing of the sphenoid bone. Due to its difficult approach, surgical intervention at the ITF has remained a heavy burden to surgeons.

Fourth cranial nerve: surgical anatomy in the subtemporal
The purpose of this study was to assess the anatomy of the tentorial and cavernous segment of the fourth cranial nerve as it appears in two different surgical approaches to the skull base: subtemporal transtentorial approach and pretemporal fronto-orbito-zygomatic approach. Four human cadaveric fixed heads were used for the dissection.
