Management of atypical cranial meningiomas, part 1: predictors of recurrence and the role of adjuvant radiation after gross total resection.
BACKGROUND Indications for external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for atypical meningiomas (AMs) remain unclear. OBJECTIVE To analyze features associated with recurrence in AM patients after gross total resection (GTR) and to assess the relative benefit of EBRT in a retrospective cohort study. METHODS One hundred fifty-one primary AMs after GTR (88 female patients; median follow-up, 45.0 mo...
متن کاملThe impact of adjuvant stereotactic radiosurgery on atypical meningioma recurrence following aggressive microsurgical resection.
OBJECT Patients with atypical meningioma often undergo gross-total resection (GTR) at initial presentation, but the role of adjuvant radiation therapy remains unclear. The increasing prevalence of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) in the modern neurosurgical era has led to the use of routine postoperative radiation therapy in the absence of evidence-based guidelines. This study sought to define t...
متن کاملThe role of radiotherapy following gross-total resection of atypical meningiomas.
OBJECT Atypical (WHO Grade II) meningiomas comprise a heterogeneous group of tumors, with histopathology delineated under the guidance of the WHO and a spectrum of clinical outcomes. The role of postoperative radiotherapy for patients with atypical meningiomas who have undergone gross-total resection (GTR) remains unclear. In this paper, the authors sought to clarify this role by reviewing thei...
متن کاملAdjuvant radiation therapy, local recurrence, and the need for salvage therapy in atypical meningioma.
BACKGROUND The impact of adjuvant radiation in patients with atypical meningioma remains poorly defined. We sought to determine the impact of adjuvant radiation therapy in this population. METHODS We identified 91 patients with World Health Organization grade II (atypical) meningioma managed at Dana-Farber/Brigham and Women's Cancer Center between 1997 and 2011. A propensity score model incor...
متن کاملSurgical site after resection of a meningioma.
PURPOSE Our goal was to characterize MR changes over time at the site of meningioma resection in order to determine optimal timing for detecting residual and recurrent tumor. METHODS Twenty-one patients were studied with enhanced MR imaging during the first 5 postoperative days and additional studies were obtained 3 to 8 weeks after surgery (16 studies), 3 months to 1 year after surgery (17 s...
