Abstract

Here we demonstrate a transorbital approach via an eyelid incision using an exoscope for resection of a growing intraorbital meningoma in a patient presenting with proptosis, retroorbital headaches and left sided facial pain. Given the growing interest in transorbital approaches to skull base tumors this video highlights key steps including: incision planning, orbitotomy, lateral orbital wall decompression, extraconal dissection and orbital reconstruction.
