Meningiomas are common intracranial tumors that can be cured by surgical resection in most cases. However, the most disconcerting is high-grade meningiomas, which frequently recur despite initial successful treatment, eventually conferring poor prognosis. Therefore, the early diagnosis and classification of meningioma is necessary for the subsequent intervention and an improved prognosis. A growing body of evidence demonstrates the potential of multi-omics study (including genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics) for meningioma diagnosis and mechanistic links to potential pathological mechanism. This thesis addresses a neglected aspect of recent advances in the field of meningiomas at multiple omics levels, highlighting that the integration of multi-omics can reveal the mechanism of meningiomas, which provides a timely and necessary scientific basis for the treatment of meningiomas.

Transcranial neurosurgery assisted by endoscopy and intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) has become an effective approach for real-time visualization and guidance during tumor resection. This study explores the application of these techniques in falcine meningioma (FM) resection, assessing their feasibility and safety. Eleven FM patients underwent transcranial endoscopic resection with IOUS assistance.

Purpose: This study explores the effects of mifepristone on the proliferation, motility, and invasion of malignant and benign meningioma cells, aiming to identify mifepristone-sensitive types and investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms.
Methods: IOMM-Lee and HBL-52 meningioma cells were treated with 0, vehicle control (VC), 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 μM of mifepristone for 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 h. Proliferation was assessed via CCK8 assay, while motility and invasion were measured using wound scratch and transwell assays.

Objective: To confirm the incidence of subcutaneous effusion secondary to cerebrospinal fluid leakage after craniotomy, analyze the risk factors for cerebrospinal fluid leakage leading to subcutaneous effusion, summarize the underlying causes of its occurrence and explore the corresponding treatment strategies.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 757 patients who underwent craniotomy at our hospital from January to December 2023. The authors documented the sex, age, surgical characteristics, and history of chronic diseases for all patients, including those who developed subcutaneous effusion secondary to cerebrospinal fluid leakage.

The coexistence of intracranial multiple meningiomas and neurofibromatosis type 1 is a rare occurrence in the field of neurosurgery, presenting complex treatment challenges, unfavorable prognoses, and significant burdens on both families and society. Currently, the primary objective is to perform surgical total resection as far as possible, while considering postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy for cases where complete tumor resection is challenging. In this case, the patient has previously undergone multiple brain tumor resections and received radiation therapy.

Background Prior to using the exoscope, we speculated that it represented an intermediate tool between a loupe and a microscope and had concerns about its visibility of deep, fine structures. Objective To evaluate the depths of meningioma for which the exoscope was suitable, and to clarify its disadvantages in meningioma resection. Methods Findings of consecutive meningioma surgeries using a 4K three-dimensional (3D) exoscope over a one-year period were evaluated for visibility of the surgical field, comfort of the surgeon's arm posture, the surgeon's head orientation, and perception of the image delay, accounting for the depth of the tumor.
