Management of Intracavernous Tumours: An 11-Year Experience
1991
Seventy-one patients with tumours involving the cavernous sinus (CS) were operated upon between 1979 and 1989. Fifty-four patients underwent a direct approach to the CS. The average age of these latter patients was 47 (9–69) years. The lesions included 51 benign tumours (26 meningiomas, 16 [7 invasive] pituitary adenomas, 3 trigeminal neurinomas, one chordoma, one chondroma, one craniopharyngioma, one epidermoid tumour, and one cavernous haemangioma), and 3 malignant tumours (one chondrosarcoma, one adenoid cystic carcinoma and one metastatic adenocarcinoma).
