Abstract
A new 1.45 mm endoscope was described that could be inserted through a thin-walled no. 16 needle. The instrument was used in 10 cadavers for endoscopic exploration of the cisterna magna, the C1-2 space, Meckel''s cave and the cerebellopontine angle. Its potential clinical application was discussed.Keywords
