This case demonstrates an endoscopic fenestration of an enlarging giant occipital arachnoid cyst. The patient is a 42-year-old woman presenting with headache, progressive vision loss, and nausea and vomiting. MRI demonstrates a large, nonenhancing cystic lesion in the right occipital lobe measuring up to 8.3 cm, consistent with an arachnoid cyst. This surgical video illustrates the technique for an endoscopic fenestration into the native ventricular system utilizing stereotactic MRI-guided stealth navigation. Postoperatively, the patient had full recovery with improvement of headaches and vision and was discharged on postoperative day 1 without complications.
