Abstract Intracranial meningiomas are the most common extra-axial tumors, representing 15% of all brain tumors. Arising from the arachnoid cells, and common in middle-aged women, 90% meningiomas are benign. We conducted a 10-year study on 183 cases of intracranial meningiomas and observed a lower and decreasing trend; the mean age was 43.3 years but there was also a significant incidence in young females. Parasagittal/falx (29%), sphenoid ridge, convexity meningiomas and middle cranial fossa locations were more common. Histopathologically, meningothelial meningioma was the most common. Benign (WHO I) tumors were found in above 90%, atypical (WHO II) in 5% cases, and malignant (WHO III) in < 4% patients. Most patients underwent Simpsons Grade I excision (35.6%) with dural reconstruction because of late presentations. Posterior fossa meningiomas were mostly benign, while intraventricular ones were mostly malignant with highest postoperation mortality. Mortality in operated patients was 9.8% but was highest in anterior fossa tumors (12.5%).

✓ An operative technique for total removal of large global meningiomas at the medial aspect of the sphenoid ridge is described, and experience with 11 patients reported. The technique involves extradural liberation of the dural and tumor attachments to the underlying bone, and extradural occlusion of the blood supply through bone and middle meningeal artery. Subsequent procedures are carried out sequentially in the parasellar area to free the optic nerve and carotid, in the subtemporal tentorial region to release tumor from neighboring structures, and in the Sylvian fissure to isolate the middle cerebral artery.

✓ The rates of survival, tumor recurrence, and tumor progression were analyzed in 225 patients with meningioma who underwent surgery as the only treatment modality between 1962 and 1980. Patients were considered to have a recurrence if their studies verified a mass effect in spite of a complete surgical removal, whereas they were defined as having progression if, after a subtotal excision, there was clear radiological documentation of an increase in the size of their tumor. There were 168 females and 57 males (a ratio of 2.9:1), with a peak incidence of tumor occurrence in the fifth (23%), sixth (29%), and seventh (23%) decades of life. Anatomical locations were the convexity (21%), parasagittal area (17%), sphenoid ridge (16%), posterior fossa (14%), parasellar region (12%), olfactory groove (10%), spine (8%), and orbit (2%). The absolute 5-, 10-, and 15-year survival rates were 83%, 77%, and 69%, respectively. Following a total resection, the recurrence-free rate at 5, 10, and 15 years was 93%, 80%, and 68%, respectively, at all sites. In contrast, after a subtotal resection, the progression-free rate was only 63%, 45%, and 9% during the same period (p < 0.0001). The probability of having a second operation following a total excision after 5, 10, and 15 years was 6%, 15%, and 20%, whereas after a subtotal excision the probability was 25%, 44%, and 84%, respectively (p < 0.0001). Tumor sites associated with a high percentage of total excisions had a low recurrence/progression rate. For example, 96% of convexity meningiomas were removed in toto, and the recurrence/progression rate at 5 years was only 3%. Parasellar meningiomas, with a 57% total excision rate, had a 5-year probability of recurrence/progression of 19%. Only 28% of sphenoid ridge meningiomas were totally resected, and at 5 years the probability of recurrence/progression was 34%. In patients undergoing a second resection, the probability of a third operation at 5 and 10 years was 42% and 56%, respectively. There was no difference in the recurrence/progression rates according to the patients' age or sex, or the duration of symptoms. Implications for the potential role of adjunctive medical therapy or radiation therapy for meningiomas are discussed.

Abstract Meningioma is in most cases a benign tumor of the central nervous system with two growth patterns: en masse and en plaque. Hyperostosis is associated in 13 - 49 % of the cases with en plaque meningioma. We describe the case of a 47 years old woman with meningotelial sphenoid ridge meningioma which was totally removed. At the first admission she presented with no neurological deficits, seizures and a mild right exophthalmos. This had an indolent growth. After 10 years, the patient was readmitted for headache, blurred vision and right exophthalmos. Skull X-rays and brain MRI revealed an important thickening of the right superior orbit wall and sphenoid ridge. She underwent a new surgery. There was no intradural tumor found. Instead, bones of the superior and lateral right orbit walls were very hiperostotic. A hole of 3/2 cm in the right superior orbital wall was drilled and the orbital cavity was decompressed. In the postoperative period, the symptoms were remitted and the exophthalmos reduced. We discuss the causes and management of hyperostosis associated with meningiomas.
