“…In a study of 39 patients with meningioma WHO II, the disease-free survival time was longer for patients subjected to complementary radiotherapy. [ 18 ] In addition, mortality was higher in the group not subjected to radiotherapy and, of these, eight patients died within 1 year of surgery, while in the group undergoing complementary radiotherapy, the first recurrence-related deaths occurred between 5 and 9 years after total resection surgery. [ 18 ] In the present study, four patients in Group B presented with atypical meningioma (WHO II) and were subjected to radiotherapy.…”

“…Além disso, o sexo masculino foi associado a um maior risco de malignidade consistente com vários estudos publicados anteriormente (43)(44)(45)(46). Esse achado reforça a necessidade de manejo neuro-oncológico mais agressivo em pacientes do sexo masculino com terapias adjuvantes após a cirurgia, como radioterapia, e com acompanhamento mais regular.…”

“…No entanto, em pacientes com meningiomas GII ou GIII, a ressecção total do tumor mostrou ser a melhor chance para aumento de sobrevida e tempo livre da doença (12). Tratamentos adjuvantes como a radioterapia (RT), mostraram um impacto positivo na redução de recorrência, bem como no prolongamento do tempo livre de doença (1).…”
