FRONTOBASAL INTERHEMISPHERIC TRANS-LAMINA TERMINALIS APPROACH FOR SUPRASELLAR LESIONS. Commentaries

THE FRONTOBASAL INTERHEMISPHERIC APPROACH for suprasellar tumors currently incorporates technological advancements and refinements in patient selection, operative technique, and postoperative care. This technique is a valid choice for the removal of suprasellar lesions with extension into the third ventricle without major sequelae related to the surgical approach. The method described here reflects the combination of the frontal interhemispheric and trans-lamina terminalis approaches.
