The surgical approach to anterolateral foramen magnum or lower clival lesion is still challenging procedure, except expert skull base neurosurgeon. The approach to the mentioned lesion can be accessed using far lateral approach. The Anatomical posterior lateral skull base structures (lateral suboccipital muscles, vessels, skull base bony structure, and intradural components) and their relationship are very important for far lateral approach. We summarized important surgical anatomy, anatomical relationship and surgical consideration to access foramen magnum lesion through far lateral approach and its variants.
