Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Purpose: Lateral supraorbital approach is a simpler and quicker method than pterional approach. It provides a more anterior projection when compared to the pterional approach. There are some minor differences of the modified lateral supraorbital approach when compared to lateral supraorbital approach. It is directed more subfrontally and anterior than the pterional and lateral supraorbital approach. Material and methods: We used modified lateral supraorbital approach in 100 cases between 2012 and 2015 in Medical Park İzmir Hospital/Turkey. The assessed data were as follows: age, gender, Glasgow coma scale at admission, the localization of pathology, the condition of surgical obliteration for aneurysm, excision grade for meningioma, length of stay in the hospital and Glasgow outcoma scale at discharge. Results: Of all patients, 58 (58%) were men and 42 (42%) were women. Our cases were anterior communicating artery aneurysms (41 cases), tuberculum sella and medial sphenoid wing meningiomas (22 cases), middle cerebral artery aneurysms (15 cases), olfactory groove meningiomas (15 cases), anterior choroidal artery aneurysms (4 cases) and posterior communicating artery aneurysms (3 cases). 4 patients died and the mortality rate of the study cohort was 4%. Conclusions: The MLSA is faster, simpler and less invasive than the PA and LSA.
