Abstract
Lesions were malignant in 7 patients and benign in the remaining 33. All the patients had dural or intradural involvement. There was no operative death, and the rate of surgical morbidity was 20%. Craniofacial resection is the only surgical approach with acceptable rate of complications in selected patients with tumour comprising the anterior and medial cranial base, nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, nasopharynx and orbits. Heroic resections are modern surgical procedures challenging both for ENT surgeons and neurosurgeons. The result is satisfactory when they are performed by a multi-specialist team.
