The functional outcome, quality of life, and patient feedback related to a chosen treatment approach in skull base surgery have become a subject of interest and focused research in recent years. The current advances in endoscopic optical imaging technology and surgical precision have radically lowered the perioperative morbidity associated with skull base surgery. This has pushed toward a higher focus on patient-reported outcomes (PROs). It is now critical to ensure that the offered treatment plan and approach align with the patient's preferences and expectations, in addition to the surgeon's best clinical judgment and experience. PROs represent a view that reflects the patient's own thoughts and perspective on their condition and the management options, without input or interpretations from the surgeon. Having PRO data enables patients the opportunity to learn from the experiences and perspectives of other patients. This input empowers the patient to become an active participant in the decision-making process at different stages of their care. An in-depth PRO evaluation requires specific validated tools and scoring systems, namely the patient-reported outcomes measures (PROM) tools. In this review, we discuss the currently available skull-base-related PROs, the assessment tools used to capture them, and the future trends of this important topic that is in its infancy.
