Modified transoral approach for resection of skull base chordomas in children
Child's Nervous System, 08/19/09

Doorenbosch X et al. – The authors report a multidisciplinary technique used in two cases in children where a modified extended palatal split was undertaken to allow greater access for tumour excision. This approach allows for good access to the skull base region to allow for maximal tumour resection. This technique also appears to have minimal impact on palatal function and no adverse effects on the upper airway management.
