Wide osteoplastic craniotomy at the left occipito-temporal area with reflection of the bone flap to the left ear. The dura was opened wide to explore the most suitable point of attack It was decided to attack it from the most swollen gurus, through its anterior border where bleeding took place. The tumor was friable and it was easy to remove the tumor mass with the bleeding sites with preservation of vein of Labbe, which was running at the posterolateral border draining to the transverse sinus. Frozen section was of malignant tumor GBM. Inspection of the wall of the cavity for residual of the tumor was negative and strict hemostasis was achieved and routine closure of the wound. Smooth postoperative recovery and the patient was sent to the ICU for 24 hour observation.
