Back ground This technique is suitable to lesions situated in the region of the anterior fossa, suprasellar cisterns, parasellar region and Sylvian fissure. Purpose To evaluate the supra-orbital approach through eyebrow incision for surgical excision of tumors in anterior cranial fossa and supra-sellar region. Method A 50 mm incision in the eyebrow and a supraorbital minicraniotomy is performed. 20 patients harboring different lesions were operated on with good postoperative and cosmetic results. We conclude that thisapproach is safe and useful in selected cases. Results 20 patients harboringdifferent lesions were operated on with good postoperative and cosmetic results.
