Abstract
During skull base surgery, reconstruction of the dura is a very important procedure. Here, the use of a temporofrontal pedicled fascia flap tunnelled between temporal muscle fibres is described. This technique is easily performed and has a low postoperative morbidity, including skin and temporal muscle complications.
