Overview
Meningioma may be classified according to WHO histological criteria into 3 groups: benign classic meningioma (WHO grade 1), atypical meningioma (WHO grade 2), and anaplastic malignant meningioma (WHO grade 3). Meningioma may also be classified according to the tumor location into 2 main subtypes: intradural and extradural meningioma.
