Abstract

A 3D medium was necessary to demonstrate and document practicable the complex skull base approach system of infratemporal fossa approach A, B and C after U. Fisch [3, 4, 5, 6, 7]. The plastination technique was chosen to preserve this anatomy in a dry, accurate and attractive specimen [8, 9, 10, 11]. The landmarks and target regions of the approaches are described. Micro- and endoscopic technique are mentioned and the possibility to use the described corridors for trans-viscerocranial avenues in neurosurgery.
