No special field of surgery dealing with the cranial nerves exists
today. This is not surprising in view of the characteristics of
this group of morphologically and topo graphically heterogenous
nerves. Morphologically we must differentiate between central
nerves (I, II and VIII) and the so-called peripheral nerves (nn.
III to VII and IX to XII), in which post-lesion rgeneration is
quite different. Anatomo-topographi cally we must consider an
intracranial and an extracranial part of each cranial nerve. For
practical reasons at operation, further subdivisions of the
intracranial course of cranial nerves are to be distinguished in
the anterior, middle and posterior cranial fossae as well as within
the petrous bone. This underscores the extensive tasks awaiting
surgeons operating in the ventral part of the brain and facial
skull as well as in the more dorsal part of the skull and neck.
This very wide field cannot be covered by a single surgical
discipline alone. In our opinion, considerable progress has been
made in surgery of the cranial nerves only in recent years. This
may be explained by the increased mastery of microsurgical
techniques by all surgeons in terested in the surgery of the base
of the skull as well as with the initiation of more
interdisciplinary consultation and jointly performed operations.
Possibilities of fu ture development can be discerned in the text.
The base of the skull separating the extra-and intracranial part of
cranial nerves should not be a barrier but a connect ing link."
