Endoscopic ipsilateral mononostril transethmoidal removal of an orbital apex cavernous hemangioma: illustrative case.

Key Points

To illustrate the use of the ipsilateral mononostril transethmoidal approach for orbital apex cavernous hemangiomas.
Performed endoscopic surgery using a mononostril transethmoidal approach
Focused on orbital apex cavernous hemangioma removal
Collaborated with a multidisciplinary team for planning and execution
Successful removal of the cavernous hemangioma with minimal complications
Patients experienced rapid recovery post-surgery

Abstract

This case demonstrates that the ipsilateral mononostril transethmoidal approach is a safe and effective option for select orbital apex cavernous hemangiomas. It provides direct access to the medial orbital apex with minimal morbidity and rapid recovery. Successful outcomes depend on multidisciplinary collaboration, careful planning, and appropriate patient selection. https://thejns.org/doi/abs/10.3171/CASE251038.
