Anterior clinoidectomy (AC) by skilled skull base surgeons enables early optic nerve (ON) decompression, tumor devascularization, and radical tumor resection. The authors provide an update on ACM surgery, current views on the role of AC and its impact on outcomes in surgical treatment, as well as a new 2 stage 4 by 4 step concept of ON decompression involving AC.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A systematic review of PubMed and meta-regression of surgically treated ACMs was performed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In total, 908 patients were analyzed; 415 (45.7%) underwent routine AC (performed in all cases) and 493 (54.3%) underwent selective AC (planned preoperatively). The routine AC cohort showed higher risk for new cranial-nerve (CN) deficits (12.5% vs. 3.0%;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001), vascular complications (6.7% vs. 3.3%;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.02), and new focal neurological deficits (5.5% vs. 2.3%;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.04).
