Through lectures and practical demonstrations, the faculty will present a range of surgical approaches, including both microscopic and endoscopic techniques, with particular emphasis on endonasal and seller anatomy as well as current operative strategies for skull base pathology.

Upon completion of the course, participants are expected to be able to critically discuss the indication for surgical management of cranial skull base lesions, recognize and describe the standard skull base approaches, and understand the principles of both microscopic and endoscopic endonasal techniques for accessing the anterior, middle, and posterior cranial fossae.
