surgerysystematic reviewAssessment of long‐term functional outcomes after meningioma surgery is important. We systematically reviewed the literature on health‐related quality of life (HrQoL) and functional disability (FD) of patients after surgery for intracranial meningiomas. Using PRISMA 2015 guidelines,...
Results of surgery of intracranial meningiomas are affected by location, size, histological attributes and genetic alterations of the tumors. Operative morbidity and mortality have traditionally been used to describe outcome after meningioma surgery. Yet, according to current outcomes research programs, ...
Some patients experience long-term declines in quality of life following meningioma resection, but associated factors are not well understood. OBJECTIVE. To investigate whether long-term declines in quality of life (specifically impaired adaptive functioning) after meningioma resection are associated with ...
The entire cohort of live skull base patients were assessed after a median follow-up time of 38.4 months. Patients with vestibular schwannoma treated conservatively with interval MRI had a quality of life similar to the normal population. Those who underwent surgery had a significant difference in ...
Little is known about long-term cognitive functioning and quality of life (QoL) in patients with symptomatic carotid artery occlusion who do not undergo revascularization surgery.To assess the course of cognitive impairment and changes in QoL in these patients and whether impaired cerebral metabolism ...

Health-related quality of life in surgically treated asymptomatic meningioma patients: A population-based matched cohort study BACKGROUND. Asymptomatic patients with meningiomas are increasingly detected, where management can be challenging in terms of surgery versus watchful waiti... N Olivia,J Stina,T...
Molecular changes tracking through multiscale fluorescence microscopy differentiate Meningioma grades and non-tumoral brain tissues Introduction The success of oncological surgery, the most widely used curative treatment for solid tumor whatever its histopathological type, is based on the accurate identification...
In a phase 2 randomized trial of patients with breast cancer treated with radiation therapy after surgery, a melatonin cream significantly reduced the incidence of dermatitis (Ben-David 2016). Forty breast cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy were randomized to a group treated with oral glutami...
