:*Radiation treatment: Clinical data suggests that head radiation therapy increase the risk of developing meningioma.
 
:*An inherited nervous system disorder: Studies show the rare disorder neurofibromatosis type 2 increases the risk of meningioma and other brain tumors.
:*Female hormones: As a tumor common in women than men, doctors believe that female hormones may play an important role in developing meningioma.

Overview

Common risk factors in the development of meningioma are history of radiation treatment, inherited nervous system disorder, and female gender.[1][2][3]

Risk Factors

  • Common risk factors in the development of meningioma are history of radiation treatment, inherited nervous system disorder, and female gender.[1][2][3]
  • The table below lists the risk factors for meningioma development:
Risk Factor Description
Radiation treatment Head radiation therapy and dental X-ray are correlated with an increased risk of meningioma[1][2][3]
Inherited nervous system disorder Neurofibromatosis type 2 increases the risk of meningioma[1][2][3]
Gender Female hormones play an important role in meningioma development[1][2][3]
Cell phone use Heavy cell phone use has been associated with increased risk of meningioma[1][2][3]
Head trauma A positive history of head trauma increases the risk of meningioma[1][2][3]
