Craniotomy for meningioma brain tumor Meningioma is the second most common primary intracranial tumor, secondary to glioma, accountable to 15 to 24% of intracranial tumors.It is usually a benign tumor and can be cured completely after surgical removal ...
Meningioma, also known as meningeal tumor, is typically a slow-growing tumor that forms from the meninges, the membranous layers surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Symptoms depend on the location and occur as a result of the tumor pressing on nearby tissue. Many cases never produce symptoms...

Although typically benign, about one-fifth of meningiomas, the most common primary brain tumors, recur despite complete surgical removal. The current meningioma classification does not consistently predict whether the tumor will recur, but researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and the Jan and Dan ...
Tumor removal was total in 60% of cases and partial in 40%. Postoperative mortality was present in 5% of cases. Morbidity included decreased level of consciousness, cranial nerve palsy and wound infection. Retrosigmoid approach is effectively and safely used for cerebellopontine angle meningioma, ...
Although the best opportunity for this type of resection is during the first operation, the overall goal of surgery is maximal tumor removal with maintenance of preoperative neurologic function and improvement of any existing deficit that is caused by mass effect of the tumor. Preoperative ...

In addition, the general resection techniques for removal of petroclival meningiomas are discussed in thePetroclival Meningioma: Posterior Petrosectomychapter. With the anterior petrosal approach, the surgeon attempts to expose the upper third of the clivus as ...
In further histological investigations, the tumor tissue around cysts exhibited significantly different features from meningothelial meningioma, demonstrating small lymphocytes and histiocytes with a large nucleus, which resembled intraoperative histological findings. We deliberated that the removal of the ...
