Surgery for meningiomas involving dural venous sinuses is challenging. We describe a case of a peritorcular meningioma involving major venous sinuses, which was removed using a venous sparing approach with the aid of intraoperative ultrasound. We found ultrasound to be a useful adjunct as it enabled us to get real-time information about the location of venous structures, their function and demonstrate dynamic changes in blood flow during surgery.
