Abstract

The article discusses simultaneous pericranial (PCF) and nasoseptal flaps (NSF) reconstruction of anterior skull base defects after endoscopic-assisted craniofacial resection. The materials and methods used in the surgery are explained. The article concludes that The combined PCF and NSF is a valid option for defects extending to the planum sphenoidale and may provide additional support when iatrogenic tears are encountered.
