- BACKGROUND: Endoscopic surgery is widely used for intraventricular and skull base tumor resections; however, its utility is not limited to deep parts of the brain. - METHODS: A 73-year-old female presented with leftside hemiparesis and seizures due to a relapsed atypical meningioma of convexity. The tumor was located just under a synthetic bone substitute and was covered by a delicate myocutaneous free flap, preventing the usual skin incision route to approach the lesion. - RESULTS: The tumor was successfully removed using an endoscope without damaging the flap. - CONCLUSIONS: With the aid of an endoscope, a superficial meningioma could be removed with the affected dura through a small craniotomy.
