“…The risk of developing a tumour peaks between the 6th and 7th decades of life, and tumours can develop from arachnoidal cap cells intracranially and in the spine 5. Meningiomas occur in 5% of patients with Gorlin syndrome, approximately 8% of patients with Cowden syndrome, and between 50 and 75% of patients with neurofibromatosis type 2 6. Grading of meningiomas (WHO Grade I-III) is based on histology, with a WHO Grade I meningioma having the best clinical outcome compared with WHO Grade II and III meningiomas.…”

“…El tratamiento de elección es la cirugía, buscando siempre resección Simpson I (resección macroscópica de dura y hueso); sin embargo, en caso de no garantizarse este grado de resección y de acuerdo con la patología del meningioma, se debe dar manejo complementario con radioterapia o quimioterapia, que lleva a una tasa de recurrencia en resección tumoral Simpson I, II, III, IV, V de 9%, 19%, 29%, 44% y 100%, respectivamente (20,21).…”

“…En el manejo complementario, los objetivos de la radioterapia son la prolongación de la supervivencia libre de progresión con preservación de la función neurológica; sus indicaciones dependen del tamaño del tumor, el estadio de la enfermedad y el grado WHO (20,21). Está indicada en el manejo de meningiomas residuales o no resecables en el momento del primer diagnóstico, meningiomas recurrentes o progresivos no resecables, meningiomas WHO II y III, y como una alternativa a la cirugía en adultos mayores con alto riesgo quirúrgico (figura 2) (20,21).…”
