Abstract

Olfactory neuroblastoma is a rare malignant tumor arising from epithelium derived from the olfac-tory mucosa. Anterior cranial base surgery is the first choice of treatment for patients with early-stage disease. We report one case of olfactory neuroblastoma in which anterior cranial base surgery was supported by a navigation system.
