We describe the use of a transorbital neuroendoscopy-assisted resection of such a lesion. While this approach is increasingly gaining popularity for certain anterior and middle skullbase lesions in adults, this report represents the youngest patient reported on where this minimally invasive approach has been successfully used to resect the intracranial tumor. This surgical approach obviated the need for a separate craniotomy, with the additional benefit of minimizing blood loss.en© The Author(s) 2023.
