Semi-sitting position and retrosigmoid approach for a large petroclival meningioma resection: 3-dimensional operative video
The retrosigmoid is an auditory sparing procedure that, with a semi-sitting position, provides direct visualization of the posterior fossa lateral triangles and the tumor and its dural implantation site with no blood and surgical view comprised of debris. This surgical video illustrates anatomical nuances and critical aspects of the retrosigmoid approach and semi-sitting position as safe and adequate access to complete resection and a favorable long-term clinical outcome. The patient consented to the procedure and the publication of his/her image.
