A 58-year-old patient presented with progressive balance difficulties, unsteady gate, slurred speech, right-sided weakness, left facial hypoesthesia, and intermittent diplopia consistent with partial 6th nerve palsy. On MRI, a lesion was identified arising at the level of the upper clivus and displacing the basilar artery to the right. An expanded endoscopic endonasal approach with pituitary gland transposition was performed. Cranial nerve VI was easily identified. Pathology reported the lesion was consistent with meningioma.
