Abstract

Tumors arising in the vicinity of the skull base are relatively uncommon; however, lesions that may be successfully treated by radiotherapy and radiosurgery include temporal bone chemodectomas, schwannomas, juvenile angiofibromas, pituitary adenomas, and meningiomas. This article reviews treatment techniques and results and discusses the pertinent literature.
