15 Decision making in convexity meningiomas more art than science Observation and risk of progression very low growth rate through life absolute growth rates vary between 0.03 and 2.62 cm3/year, with relative growth rates ranging between 0.48% and 72.2% surgical resection should be performed when growth rate is greater 1 cm3/year multiple convexity meningiomas, symptomatic lesions, those that display growth should be resected

20 11 deaths during the total follow-up period. Ten of these were in patients aged 65 years or older, and none were meningioma- or surgery-related overall recurrence rate during the follow-up period 4.3% median follow-up 28 months

21 overall 5-year RFS rate, including all histological grades, was 85% (n=7) median time to recurrence was 14 months mean time to recurrence was 28 months among the benign tumors, there were only two recurrences, both within 5 years of first surgery, making the recurrence rate 1.8%. both of these recurrences were reported as having borderline atypia. median follow-up 28 months

22 5-year recurrence rates for atypical tumors and anaplastic (n=3) tumors were 27.2% and 50%, respectively true Simpson Grade I resections can only realistically be achieved with convexity meningiomas. this series may effectively represent a comparison of the recurrence rates by histological grading ( keeping the extent of resection variable constant) median follow-up 28 months

24

25 possible causes of recurrence: - inadequate resection - multifocality of tumor cells in the dura - and de novo tumor formation Simpson felt that the most likely reason was unrecognized spread of tumor cells at the time of operation, particularly through the falx or the tentorium.

26 Dural multifocality of disease beyond the margin of the tumor has been postulated by others (2, 13, 21). Residual tumor cells in thickened arachnoid have also been proposed as a source of recurrence (6, 21).

40 36 studies comprising 459 patients Chun JY, McDermott MW, Lamborn KR, Wilson CB, Higashida R, Berger MS. Delayed surgical resection reduces intraoperative blood loss for embolized meningiomas. Neurosurgery 50: , 2002

41 Based on the studies included in this review, delaying surgery may not add any significant increased risk However, some of the senior authors are aware of several anecdotal cases in which preoperative embolization resulted in significant tumor necrosis and edema with acute neurological decline, requiring an emergency tumor resection

42 36 studies comprising 459 patients For large cranial vault meningiomas, the main blood supply usually arises from branches of superficial temporal, occipital, middle meningeal, and/or posterior meningeal arteries, all of which are accessible surgically early during the exposure. For large skull base meningiomas, blood supply generally arises from petrous/cavernous/pial internal carotid artery branches or vertebrobasilar branches, all of which are difficult or impossible to selectively catheterize safely.

43 .gain most from preoperative embolization is the giant convexity lesion with such exuberant and multidirectional blood supply that simply opening the bone flap can result in catastrophic blood loss.
