There has been considered a case of spontaneous nasal liquorrhea in a patient with lateral sinus wall defect and a sinus mass of non-neoplastic origin (pseudomeningovele) not associated with the operation on hypophysis and skull base structures; and shown the possibilities of an advanced endoscopic approach as an alternative to an intracranial technique. The details of surgical management and defect closure technique have been represented.
