Background And Purpose
Method
Among 9873 cases of meningioma surgically treated between 2003 and 2013 at Beijing Tiantan Hospital, cases of CM were chosen for analysis and were retrospectively reviewed. To ascertain which factors were related with progression-free survival (PFS), statistical analysis was performed.
Conclusion
CM is a rare subtype of WHO grade II meningioma. It more frequently involved the adult patients and was without sex predilection. The confirmed diagnosis relied on pathological validation. Total resection whenever possible is recommended to prolong PFS of patients. The value of adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) for CM need to be further studied.
