The corticectomy and trans-T2 trans-ventricular approach to resection of the mesial temporal structures is identical to the approach via a standard scalp incision and cranial opening. The exposure accomplished with a keyhole access approach is more than adequate to perform the maneuvers required to complete the SAH.
