Successful Treatment Depends on Successful Diagnosis
What are Meningiomas?
Meningiomas are tumors that arise from the covering of the brain (the meninges) and can then compress on the brain and cause symptoms. Most occur on the surface of the brain, and some occur underneath (at the Skull Base). Most meningiomas are benign tumors, but some can be more aggressive, and these are labeled atypical meningiomas or malignant meningiomas.
Treatment
Treatment Options
The treatment options of Meningiomas include:
1) Surgical Resection (Microsurgery)
2) Stereotactic Radiosurgery and sometimes a combination of both. Many Meningiomas require no treatment and are followed by the Neurosurgeon for years
