The author describes four different approaches to clival tumours, and reviews his experience with 33 chordomas of the clivus. He also reviews his large experience with tumours invading the floor of the anterior and middle cranial fossae, and describes various surgical approaches for the removal of these tumours, followed by reconstruction of the bony floor with bone grafts, and dural reconstruction.
