The Paraclinoid Region:Fundamentals for Every Surgeon
The anatomic facts: Rhoton’s Canon Implications for paraclinoid aneurysms
Implications for surgical approach Maximalist versus minimalist strategies
A personal philosophy

Implications for Paraclinoid Aneurysms
The ophthalmic aneurysm
The superior hypophyseal aneurysm (extradural versus carotid cave)
The ventral paraclinoid aneurysm (transitional versus intradural)
Ophthalmic Aneurysm

Maximalist vs. Minimalist Strategies
Adaptation of conventional approaches Maximalist skull base approaches
Minimalist (keyhole, endoscopic assisted or controlled)
Focused strategies
A Personal Philosphy: Balancing What is “Safe” and What is “Feasible”
