Endoscopic-assisted techniques have frequently been applied to cerebellopontine angle (CPA) surgery in the context of minimally invasive craniotomies, which increase the extent of tumor resection, minimize complications, and preserve the function of the delicate CPA structures. Objective: To assess the outcome of microscopic and combined microscopic with endoscopic technique as minimally invasive approach in Al Azhar experience. Patients and Method: twenty-two consecutive patients proved to have CPA masses were treated with microscopic and combined microscopic with endoscopic technique between September 2016 and December 2019 at the Neurosurgery Department, Al-Azhar University Hospitals. All patients included in this study have CPA masses. The reliability of the extent of microscopic removal was evaluated with endoscopic exploration. Additional resection was performed with both microscopic and the combined microscopic-endoscopic technique. Endoscopically verified total resection was validated by postoperative MRI. The function of the cranial nerves was evaluated to assess the impact of the combined technique on their function. Results: The mean age of patients in this study was ~ 43 years. All cases are clinically elevated by Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS) early after wakeup of anesthesia and late after 24 hrs. The favorable outcome achieved early in 18 patients (81.82%) and late in 19 patients (86","PeriodicalId":7627,"journal":{"name":"Al-Azhar Medical Journal","volume":"308 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139331339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
