In this operative video we demonstrate the microsurgical resection of a giant cavernous sinus meningioma in a 55-year-old woman presenting with severe left eye vision loss. Tumor resection was difficult due to the encasement of cavernous carotid artery and severe compression of the left optic nerve. Post-operatively the patient developed vasospasm which was treated with intra-arterial milrinone. At 1-year follow-up, she was independent for all activities (mRS 1) and returned to work.
