Article Synopsis
- Meningiomas account for 15%-20% of primary intracranial tumors and are usually benign, with a high cure rate post-surgery, although some can be aggressive and recur.
- The study analyzed 254 patients over 11 years at a medical institute in Kashmir, focusing on tumor demographics, location, histological subtype, and recurrence based on WHO classification.
- Results showed a higher prevalence in females (especially in spinal meningiomas) and a low recurrence rate of 3.93%, linked to the Simpson grade of tumor excision and the histopathological grade.
