title: [Endoscopically assisted removal of posterior fossa meningioma combined with microvascular decompression of trigeminal nerve root (early experience)].
abstract: The article presents an example of endoscopically assisted neurosurgical removal of petrous apex meningioma associated with trigeminal neuralgia. Endoscopy was used during the operation for control of completeness of tumor removal and for identification of offending vessel and control of position of protector. Total resection of the tumor was achieved, complete regression of trigeminal pain was observed in early postoperative period.
