  • Postoperative imaging confirmed gross total resection, with the patient remaining neurologically intact after the procedure.
  • The case underscores the importance of multidisciplinary planning and tailored surgical techniques for complex meningiomas.
  • Histopathology indicated a WHO Grade I meningothelial meningioma in a recurrent case with significant extracranial extension.
