Abstract
Although the number of reports concerning the transoral approach to anteriorly placed lesions of the craniocervical junction are increasing, the development of this technique is still in its early stages. The indications and surgical methods vary widely, and there is much room for discussion of the technical details. Eight cases operated on via transoral surgery during the last 4 years are presented in support of the transoral approach to tumors in the craniocervical region.Keywords
