Several surgical approaches for posterior fossa craniotomy

The surgical approach to posterior fossa craniotomy determines the required patient positioning.

The midline suboccipital approach (panel A) often requires the patient to be positioned prone or sitting.
For the lateral suboccipital (panel B) and temporal (panel C) approaches, the patient may be placed in the lateral decubitus or park bench positions, or supine with the head turned.
