Introduction: To present a complex case of giant meningoencephalocele after a canal wall down mastoidectomy and describe our preferred approach to repair meningoencephalic herniation of the temporal bone. Case Report: A 20-year-old patient, who had previously undergone type III tympanoplasty with total ossicular reconstruction prosthesis for an attic cholesteatoma, presents with clinical and imaging features compatible with the diagnosis of a giant temporal meningoencephalocele. We performed a combined approach –transmastoid plus minicraniotomy- to repair the skull base defect. A multilayer reconstruction of the defect with septal cartilage and temporal fascia was performed. After a 48 months follow-up, the patient remains symptom free without signs of tissue herniation. Conclusions: Transmastoid plus minicraniotomy combined approach is a safe and feasible technique in case of large and anterior skull base defects with low surgical morbidity, allowing a safe and multilayered reconstruction, even in the context of a simultaneous active chronic otitis media. | ||
