Ventricular Puncture

Harvey Cushing played a pivotal role in establishing neurosurgery as a distinct surgical discipline. One of his most important contributions was defining the surgical removal of posterior fossa tumors. Compulsive preoperative evaluation followed by meticulous surgical technique as well as incorporation of maneuvers such as ventricular puncture and electrocautery further advanced resection of tumors in this region. Herein, the authors review Cushing's contributions to posterior fossa surgery.

Olfactory Groove Meningioma

A 58-year-old man had an enlarging right fronto-orbital mass. A biopsy specimen of a right nasal cavity tumor was reported as meningioma. Preoperative evaluation including skull roentgenograms, tomograms of the paranasal sinuses, brain scan, computerized axial tomography, and carotid angiography substantiated a large subfrontal mass with paranasal sinus and orbital extension. A combined approach through a right frontal craniotomy and right lateral rhinotomy was used for a complete removal of this tumor. A review of the literature is contained herein.
