Case presentation: A 60-year old man presented with headache,visual disturbance progressing to blindness and facial nerve palsy. At first, radiological imaging showed large tumor which eroded his clivus, sella floor and involved both cavernous carotid more on left side,both ethmoid sinus,middle cranial fossa entension with transdural extension posteriorly. Conclusion: Patients who present with complete blindness and facial nerve palsy, endoscopic excision in a single skull base approach of a skull base chordoma type III is challenging and who developed visual improvement following surgery, has been highlighted in this report.
