The evolution of extracranial approaches to the pituitary and anterior skull base.

Abstract

The development of extracranial approaches to the anterior skull base has been a process in development for over a 100 years. Many neurosurgical (and non-neurosurgical) pioneers have contributed to its evolution. In this paper, we will review the major contributors and contributions to this evolving field.
