Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical application of keyhole craniotomy microsurgery in neurosurgery. Methods Corresponding keyhole approach operation was employed in 13 cases of sellar region tumor, 6 cases of meningoma, 5 cases of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage, 2 cases of glioma of corpus callosum, 2 cases of acoustic neuroma, 1 case of metastatic cerebral tumor, 1 case of epidural hematoma and 1 case of C 2 intravertebral tumor. Results Among the 25 cases, total resection was accomplished in 19 cases and subtotal resection, 6 cases. Lesions were all thoroughly cleared away in 5 cases of cerebral hemorrhage and 1 case of epidural hematoma. One case of acoustic neuroma died of re-bleeding in the lesion on the 3rd postoperative day. Subcutaneous dropsy took place in 2 cases and transient diabetes insipidus occurred in 3 cases. Conclusions Keyhole craniotomy microsurgery has the advantages of minimal exposure, micro-invasion, fewer complications and faster recovery.
