An image-guidance assisted technique is described to perform adequate dural resection. Methods: A universal instrument adapter system for image-guidance was used to track the dural extension of the meningioma accurately. Results: The universal instrument adapter offers the surgeon the possibility to image-guide nearly any rigid instrument via the computed calibration method. in this way a surgical marking pen was used to chase and adequately mark the "dural tail". Discussion: Image-guidance systems can be used to avoid incomplete resection of the affected dura that may be responsible for tumour recurrence.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessdural tailtumourneuronavigationrecurrenceArticle49635735810.1055/s-2006-9618192-s2.0-3394714060617323263N/AWOS:000245192900008Q3
