The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a right foramen magnum meningioma, sized approximately 2\u2009cm in all planes (Fig. 1). This was classified with the Bernard system as an intradural foramen magnum meningioma with anterolateral insertion to the dura mater and below the vertebral artery. A suboccipital, retrocondylar, and c1 right hemilaminectomy approach was performed. Using microsurgical tumoral decompression techniques, ultrasonic aspiration, and following the natural cleavage planes, complete tumor removal was achieved (Fig. 2). The patient presented an uneventful postoperative course with no postoperative new neurological deficits and was discharged at home 7 days following surgery. Control MRI at 6 months (Fig. 1) and 2 years showed no tumor residue or recurrence. Neurologic status at 6 months was excellent, showing complete remission of symptoms.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2003Retrocondylar suboccipital approach is a safe and feasible option for anterolateral foramen magnum meningiomas provided that natural corridors and dynamic retraction are used.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The link to the video can be found at: https:\/\/youtu.be\/jpxMcjCpN6E.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0040-1714403","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,1]],"date-time":"2021-01-01T01:00:41Z","timestamp":1609462841000},"page":"S33-S34","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"special_numbering":"S","title":["Suboccipital Retrocondylar Approach for an Anterolateral Foramen Magnum Meningioma"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"82","author":[{"given":"Adrian","family":"Bala\u0219a","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219 County Clinical Emergency Hospital, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gabriel","family":"Gyorki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219 County Clinical Emergency Hospital, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Flaviu","family":"Tamas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219 County Clinical Emergency Hospital, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Corina","family":"Hurghis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219 County Clinical Emergency Hospital, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6368-0555","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rares","family":"Chinezu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, George Emil Palade University of Medicine, Pharmacy, Science, and Technology of T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219 County Clinical Emergency Hospital, T\u00eergu Mure\u0219, Romania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,31]]},"container-title":["Journal of Neurological Surgery Part B: Skull Base"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0040-1714403.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,8]],"date-time":"2021-03-08T11:40:49Z","timestamp":1615203649000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0040-1714403"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,31]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"S 01","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,5]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,2]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0040-1714403","relation":{},"ISSN":["2193-6331","2193-634X"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2193-6331"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2193-634X"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,31]]}}}
