What is Skull Base Surgery?
The skull base is a complex area where the brain connects to many important nerves. When tumors appear here, skull base surgery may be needed to remove them safely. Surgeons use special instruments and detailed imaging to protect key functions such as memory, movement, and speech while improving long-term outcomes.

How Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery Works
Surgery is performed through the nasal passages, avoiding external scars.
A thin endoscope provides a clear, magnified view of the surgical site.
Specialized instruments are used to carefully dissect and remove the tumor.
Intraoperative MRI or CT scans may be used for navigation and confirmation of complete tumor removal.
This approach reduces trauma, shortens hospital stay, and speeds up recovery.
