Comparative clinical studies are lacking, however. We aim to establish the better performance of the paramedian SCIT approach in terms of clinical safety in surgically treated pineal cysts and pineal region tumors. Procedural functionality and effectiveness have been also analyzed. METHODS: A comparative analysis of clinical, radiologic, patholog...
