BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Surgical resection of tumors invading the cavernous sinus (CS) still shows therapeutic challenges. For "nonadenomatous" skull base tumors invading in CS, there were only a few reports showing the outcomes of radical resection. Therefore, the outcomes of endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery (ETS) aiming for radical resection thus remain largely unknown regarding resectability and functional results of the cranial nerves.
METHODS: We performed ETS aiming for radical resection in 35 skull base tumors involving CS (17 chondrosarcomas, 12 chordomas, 3 meningiomas, and 3 trigeminal schwannomas; median follow-up 36.5 months ranging from 12 to 91 months). Gross total resection (GTR) is attempted in all the cases for real-time findings from electrophysiological monitoring of the cranial nerves. When the tumor was strongly adherent to the cranial nerves or internal carotid artery, maximum volume reduction of the tumor was attempted.
RESULTS: GTR was achieved in 28 patients (80.0%), subtotal resection in 3 (8.6%), and partial resection in 4 (11.4%). One patient experienced internal carotid artery injury during surgery. After ETS, 15 patients showed symptom improvement (51.7% in all 29 patients with preoperative cranial nerve symptoms, CNS). Four (11.4%) transiently developed abducens nerve palsy, and one required repair surgery for cerebrospinal leakage. In univariate analyses, extension to the lateral compartment of CS ( P = .04) was significantly associated with reduced achievement of GTR. Previous transcranial surgery was associated with reduced possibility of improvement and worsening in CNS. Eleven patients underwent stereotactic radiosurgery, at a median of 12 months after ETS. 32 patients (91.4%) did not show recurrence at the final follow-up.
CONCLUSION: ETS can achieve sufficient surgical resection in most of the patients, with acceptable neurological complications. For patients with CNS, ETS may offer the opportunity for improving CNS. We should also always prioritize avoidance of critical situations by preventing internal carotid artery injury.
