Lateral skull base surgery is primarily for removing meningiomas, acoustic tumors, and paragangliomas. The standard treatment for these tumors is microsurgery.

This is a minimally invasive technique involving an endoscope. Endoscopic end-nasal surgery allows our skull base surgeons to access tumors through the sinus and nasal cavities. An endoscope is a medical device that transmits images via a long, thin tube and helps us examine the tumor.
