Abstract

65-year-old gentleman with a history of recurrent clival chordoma involving the sella and bilateral cavernous sinuses was referred for a second opinion. The tumor had progressed significantly despite endonasal subtotal resection 1 year prior and subsequent proton beam radiotherapy. The video demonstrates expanded endoscopic transpterygoid transcavernous approach for resection of disease. Skull base reconstruction was done utilizing a regional rotational temporoparietal fascia flap as there were no viable nasoseptal flaps given the previous surgery.
