Lesions treated by Senta Clinic


Tumors: Advanced head and neck tumors | Angiofibromas | Chordomas | Chondromas/ chondrosarcomas | Craniopharyngiomas | Esthesioneuroblastomas | Meningiomas | Neurofibromas | Orbital tumors | Paranasal sinus neoplasms | Pituitary tumors | Schwannomas | Temporal bone tumors

Vascular Neoplasms: Arterio-venous malformations | Carotico-cavernous fistulae | Cavernous angiomas | Complex aneurysms | Glomus jugulare/vagale and tympanicum | Carotid body tumor

In addition, intraoperative carotid sacrifice or bypass can be anticipated through the use of test balloon occlusion of the carotid artery to assess circle of Willis competency. Technological advances in intraoperative monitoring of the patient also have improved skull base surgery outcomes. The use of monitors to assess cranial nerve function in real time has greatly reduced the risk of neurologic deficits.

Advanced devices such as the laser and the ultrasonic dissector further reduce operative morbidity.

Trauma: Complex craniofacial fractures | CSF rhinorrhea | Orbital apex fractures with optic nerve compression

Congenital Lesions: Basilar invaginations | Branchial cleft cysts | Congenital cysts | Craniofacial anomalies and malformations | Encephaloceles | Menginoceles
