Abstract: Tumors including the anterior skull base and paranasal sinuses are challenging to treat because of their relative rarity, the wide variety of tumor types represented, and the irregularity in the degree of involved local structures. We aimed by this Systematic review study to evaluate the treatment approaches of Tumors of sinonasal tract and anterior skull base, though we also intended to discuss the diagnostic procedures because management can’t be approached un least the diagnosis is accurate, which is mostly imaging modalities used in the diagnosis of such tumors locations. A literature search for ASB and sinonasal & anterior skull base tumors was performed in January of 2016 through the MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase Databases. It is reported in the literature that substantial deadly sinonasal & ASB tumors can be handled successfully with an en bloc resection through an anterior transfacial-cranial technique. The cranioendoscopic method allows en bloc resection and appreciates these oncologic principles. With this strategy, all facial incisions are avoided and osteotomies are reduced. Although open surgical resection remains the gold standard for the removal of anterior skull base sores, recent information indicates that endonasal endoscopic surgical treatment is safe.
