Meningioma: Anyone else? I'm frightened

I go for my third MRI in November. The first two showed no change. My question is, if they ever have to do surgery to remove the meningioma, how do they do that? I asked the doctor and he said since my meningioma is on my side of my head above my left ear they would drill a hole in my skull to get to that. Has anyone ever heard or had experience with that? I don't know what that is called.

A craniotomy? Maybe they can remove it with just a drill hole if it’s small enough
