Overview
The predominant therapy for meningioma is surgical resection. Adjunctive radiation therapy may be required among certain patients.[1] The Simpson criteria for meningioma correlates the degree of surgical resection completeness with the probability of post-surgical tumor recurrence.[1][2][3] Surgical resection is not recommended among patients with asymptomatic stable meningioma.[1]
Surgery
- The predominant therapy for meningioma is surgical resection. Adjunctive radiation therapy may be required among certain patients.[1]
- Transarterial embolization has recently became a standard procedure in the preoperative management.[1]
- Surgical resection procedures of meningioma include:[1][2][3]
- Complete meningioma resection, with excision of any involved bone, venous sinuses, and dural attachments
- Complete meningioma resection and coagulation of dural attachment
- Partial meningioma resection sparing the dura
- Subtotal meningioma resection
- Surgical resection is not recommended among patients with asymptomatic stable meningioma.[1]
- The Simpson criteria for meningioma correlates the degree of surgical resection completeness with the probability of post-surgical tumor recurrence:[1][2][3]
