Abstract
The knowing of skull base triangles topography is necessary for performing of transcavernous approaches to difficult accessible segments of internal carotid artery (ICA) and to apex of basilar artery (BA) as well as for removal of cavernous sinus tumors or skull base tumors with spreading into cavernous sinus and also for proximal control and performing the intra-intracranial bypasses between loops and segments of ICA during revascularization surgery. The topography and anatomy of triangles of cavernous sinus roof (oculomotor triangle, carotid Umansky triangle, medial Hakuba triangle, clinoid Dolenc triangle) as well as the triangles of lateral cavernous sinus wall (Parkinson triangle and superior Fukushima triangle) are presented. The knowing of these triangles is necessary for performing the modern transcavernous approaches for clipping of basilar apex aneurysms and for transcavernous approaches to meningohypophyseal trunk for treatment of carotid-cavernous fistula.
