Unhappy Cribriform CSF Leak Not reachable via Endo?

Hello I was diagnosed with a cribriform csf leak with a meningocele/encephalocele protruding into the ethmoid sinus. My doctor told me that he would not be able to reach the site of the cribriform defect via endoscopy.

So the other option is a frontal craniotomy and I obviously want a second opinion.

I'm going to schedule a visit with a neurologist as well as another ENT.

Has anyone else here had the same experience and if so how did you handle it, what ultimately happened?

This is my first time on any forum of this site, I'll check back ASAP for responses. Thank you in advance.
