Surgical Resectability of Skull Base Meningiomas
With recent advances in surgical technology such as preoperative imaging, neuro-monitoring, and surgical instruments, the surgical resectability of intracranial meningiomas has increased over the last two decades. This study reviewed clinical articles regarding the surgical treatment of meningiomas to clarify the role of surgical excision, with a focus on skull base meningiomas. We sub-classifi...
متن کاملSurgical and Radiation Treatment of Skull Base Meningiomas
Meningiomas comprise approximately 20% of adult primary intracranial neoplasms. Of these, benign meningiomas are known to have an indolent growth pattern, usually without infiltration into adjacent nervous tissue. Because meningiomas have a well-circumscribed character, surgery has historically been the preferred treatment when total resection can be achieved with reasonable morbidity. Surgical...
متن کاملTrue petroclival meningiomas: results of surgical management.

Among the issues debated are goals of treatment, outcomes, and quality of life, appropriate extent of surgical removal, the role of skull base approaches, and the efficacy of combined decompressive surgery and radiosurgery. The authors report on...
متن کاملSurgical Management of Skull Base Meningiomas – An Overview

The skull base is an area with multiple neural structures as well as brain supplying adjacent arteries and veins. Meningiomas, growing on or within the skull can thus be very challenging for the neurosurgeon...
