The ALT and AMT are useful corridors to access to the SphS, MaxS, PS, NC, and EP via a transcranial approach. The use of the endoscope through this corridor widely extend the extradural anterior temporal fossa approach which may be considered as a valuable alternative to the extended endoscopic endonasal approach for selected skull base lesions extending both intracranial and into the PS, NC and EP.
