The anteromedial triangle: The risk for cranial nerves ischemia at the cavernous sinus lateral wall. Anatomic cadaveric study
Published in July 2008 under the sponsorship of the Pittsburgh Skull base group in the journal Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery 110 (2008) 682-686 Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery 110:682-686; 2008 (IF 1.586)
Written following more than 7 years of work promoting a new frontier for tumor surgery. This direction has since been maintained and is now common practice in specialized centers for skull base pathologies. This work has allowed recognition by the international scientific community as a renowned author and has been presented by invitation at major world congresses of neurosurgery such as:
Craniotomy versus endoscopic approach in skull base surgery (Marseille, March 2009, European Congress of the Society of Neurosurgery, EANS).
The anatomy of cavernous sinus (Rotterdam: April 2009, World Congress of Skull Base Surgery)
The surgery of cavernous sinus (Singapore: June 2010, World Congress of Neuroscience)
