22. Training model for control of an internal carotid artery injury during transsphenoidal surgery.

Author

Muto, Jun, Carrau, Ricardo L., Oyama, Kenichi, Otto, Brad A., and Prevedello, Daniel M.

Abstract

Objectives: As the adoption of endoscopic endonasal approaches (EEA) continues to proliferate, increasing numbers of internal carotid artery (ICA) injuries are reported. The objective of this study was to develop a synthetic ICA injury-training model that could mimic this clinical scenario and be portable, repeatable, reproducible, and without risk of biological contamination.Methods: Based on computed tomography of a human head, we constructed a synthetic model using selective laser sintering with polyamide nylon and glass beads. Subsequently, the model was connected to a pulsatile pump using 6-mm silicon tubing. The pump maintains a pulsatile flow of an artificial blood-like fluid at a variable pressure to simulate heart beats. Volunteer surgeons with different levels of training and experience were provided simulation training sessions with the models. Pre- and posttraining questionnaires were completed by each of the participants.Results: Pre- and posttraining questionnaires suggest that repeated simulation sessions improve the surgical skills and self-confidence of trainees.Conclusion: This ICA injury model is portable; reproducible; and avoids ethical, biohazard, religious, and legal problems associated with cadaveric models. A synthetic ICA injury model for EEA allows recurring training that may improve the surgeon's ability to maintain endoscopic visualization, control catastrophic bleeding, decrease psychomotor stress, and develop effective team strategies to achieve hemostasis.Level Of Evidence: NA Laryngoscope, 127:38-43, 2017.

Abstract

Anterior skull base meningiomas are a diverse group of tumors that involve different locations. The role of the expanded endoscopic transnasal approach in the management of anterior cranial fossa meningiomas has significantly changed over the past 2 decades. Patient selection is paramount to benefit from the advantages of endoscopic transnasal surgery such as direct access to ventral skull base lesions avoiding brain and brainstem retraction, early de-vascularization, removal of bone infiltrated by tumor, near-field magnification, better surgical field illumination, and minimal manipulation of neurovascular structures. Here we discuss some of the main limitations and advantages of the endoscopic transnasal approach related to patient selection, including nuances of their management, discussing preoperative imaging and planning, the surgical approach, and future perspectives in the treatment of these tumors., (© 2020 S.
