Background. Reconstruction of the skull base after resection of a tumour is important to prevent postoperative complications such as infectionsand cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage. Several reconstructive methods of the anterior skull base have been reported but, their long-term results are not clear. Methods. We describe a technique used after removal of an olfactory neuroblastoma with infiltration of the skull base. The reconstructed dura was covered with a galeal patch, a replicated galeal-pericranial flap, a graft from the inner table of skull, and a vascularised galeal-pericranial flap placed on the skull base defect. All layers were fixed with fibrin glue. Conclusion. Three dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) at bone window settings demonstrated the bone graft covered the bone defect and was not absorbed and after 11 years there have been no signs of tumour regrowth or complications.
