Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The supraorbital keyhole approach through an eyebrow incision has been a potentially less invasive approach as an alternative to the standard pterional craniotomy. We aimed to review procedures for anterior and middle cranial fossa lesions and identify lessons learned from addressing various pathologies through this approach.
