The clivus is a complex anatomical structure that lies at the base of the skull. It is bFree Downloaded by the sphenoid bone anteriorly, the occipital bone posteriorly, and the petrous part of the temporal bone laterally. The clivus is traversed by a number of important neurovascular structures, including the brainstem, the basilar artery, and the cranial nerves. Surgical access to the clivus is challenging due to its deep location and the presence of these vital structures.

Approaches to the Clivus is a comprehensive guide to the surgical management of clival lesions. The book provides a detailed overview of the anatomy of the clivus, the different surgical approaches to the clivus, and the potential complications of clival surgery.

The book is divided into three parts. Part I provides an overview of the anatomy of the clivus and the different surgical approaches to the clivus. Part II discusses the specific surgical techniques for each of the different approaches to the clivus. Part III discusses the potential complications of clival surgery.
