Endoscopic transnasal resection of clival meningiomas. Analysis of surgical outcomes in 20 patients and literature review.
Review in Neurosurgical review, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionTreatment of clival and petroclival meningiomas remains one of the unresolved problems in contemporary neurosurgery. Studies on this topic are rare, and the objective of our research is to evaluate the current outcomes of endoscopic transnasal approaches in the surgical management of meningiomas of the clival region. OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY: This study presents a single-center experience with the endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal transclival (posterior extended) approach for the resection of clival and petroclival meningiomas. MATERIALS AND
methodsTwenty consecutively treated with histologically confirmed clival and petroclival meningiomas underwent EEA surgery between 2012 and 2024 year. Tumor volume and neurovascular involvement were radiologically assessed. A binostril endoscopic transsphenoidal transclival approach was used with intraoperative Doppler ultrasonography and neuronavigation.
resultsTotal resection was achieved in 2 cases (10%), subtotal resection in 5 cases (25%), and partial resection in 13 cases (65%). The most common complication was meningitis. Neurological complications were rare.
conclusionsConsidering the difficult location of these tumors, the endoscopic transnasal approach serves as an additional option alongside transcranial approaches in the planning of surgical treatment.
