N2 - Skull base meningiomas are among the most challenging meningiomas to treat clinically due to their deep location, involvement or encasement of adjacent essential neurovascular structures (such as key arteries, cranial nerves, veins, and venous sinuses), and their often-large size prior to diagnosis. Although multimodal treatment strategies continue to evolve with advances in stereotactic and fractionated radiotherapy, surgical resection remains the mainstay of treatment for these tumors. Resection of these tumors however is challenging from a technical standpoint, and requires expertise in several skull-base surgical approaches that rely on adequate bony removal, minimization of brain retraction, and respect for nearby neurovascular structures. These skull base meningiomas originate from a variety of different structures including, but are not limited to: the clinoid processes, tuberculum sellae, dorsum sellae, sphenoid wing, petrous/petroclival area, falcotentorial region, cerebellopontine angle, and foramen magnum. In this chapter, we will cover the common anatomical areas in the skull base from which these tumors arise, and the specific or optimal surgical approaches and other treatment modalities for meningiomas in these such locations.
