Abstract
Background:
Access to the trigone of the lateral ventricle is challenging because of the deep location and the intimate relationships to eloquent areas.
Methods:
A novel posterior interhemispheric transfalx transprecuneus approach for two meningiomas at the trigone of the lateral ventricle is described.
Results:
The meningiomas were resected completely with good neurologic outcomes and no operative mortality.
Conclusions:
The feasibilities and advantages of this novel approach are discussed.
