Comparison of the Surgical Outcome of Pterional and Frontotemporal-Orbitozygomatic Approaches and Determination of Predictors of Recurrence for Sphenoid Wing Meningiomas

In summary, sphenoid wing meningiomas undergoing extensive skull base approach (FTOZ) and GTR had a low recurrence rate and greater RFS. Even though FTOZ with GTR is preferable to resect the sphenoid wing meningiomas, the procedure should be tailored to each patient depending on the risks and surgical morbidity.
