How to treat cavernous sinus tumors surgically

Surgical treatment of cavernous sinus should refer to the surgical treatment of tumors within cavernous sinus because cavernous sinus is a normal physiological structure of human body and does not need to be operated. On the other hand, the surgical treatment of cavernous sinus tumor is relatively more complicated, which is usually to choose orbital zygomatic approach, craniotomy to remove the tumor, or may also be treated with the help of interventional surgery. 1. Craniotomy: For cavernous sinus tumor, craniotomy is still the main treatment method, but because cavernous sinus tumor is deep in location, with complex anatomical structure, rich blood vessels and relatively more nerves, therefore, the overall treatment is relatively difficult. It is easy to cause a series of adverse conditions such as tumor residual blood vessel injury and nerve dissection, which will eventually cause disability or even death. The main practice is to choose orbital-zygomatic approach to get better exposure vision, use brain pressure plate to move brain tissue, gradually enter into the outside of cavernous sinus, find the tumor, and protect the peripheral blood vessels and nerves to give resection. 2. Interventional surgery: In many cases, interventional surgery is needed to improve the patient’s condition, which can effectively reduce the occurrence of blood seepage in cavernous sinus and reduce the risk of hemorrhage. If you find cavernous sinus tumor, you should seek medical treatment in time and standardize the treatment under the guidance of professional doctors, so as not to delay the condition.
