Evaluating the Importance of the Tentorial Angle in the Paramedian Supracerebellar-Transtentorial Approach for Selective Amygdalohippocampectomy

摘要

OBJECTIVE: Achallenging step of the paramedian supracerebellar-transtentorial approach is to expose the anterior portion of the mediobasal-temporal region (MTR), a step that seems most affected by the steepness of the tentorium. The objective of this study was to define magnetic resonance imaging measurements that can predict the level of challenge in exposing the anterior portion of the MTR.
