Incisionless facial resection for Kadish stage C olfactory neuroblastoma: Transcaruncular approach with combined endonasal and skull base surgery

Abstract

Abstract This case report describes resection without facial incision for aggressive Kadish stage C olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB). We performed resection via transcaruncular approach with combined endonasal and skull base surgery. This multidisciplinary team surgical approach is expected to lead to a new strategy for this type of tumor in the future.
