Microsurgical Management of Craniopharyngiomas via a Unilateral Subfrontal Approach: A Retrospective Study of 177 Continuous Cases

Most CPs extend along the intrasellar-suprasellar-third ventricle axis. A subfrontal-basal approach is a simple, safe, and effective approach to resecting CPs extending along the vertical axis. A translamina terminalis approach is an ideal corridor to resect intraventricular CP. The benefit of radical resection remains controversial, especially for CPs involving the infundibulotuberal region.
