New Classification Scheme for the Prognostic Stratification of Meningioma on the Basis of Chromosome 14 Abnormalities, Patient Age, and Tumor Histopathology

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Meningiomas are usually considered benign tumors. However, relapses occur in 10% to 20% of all patients, including both histopathologically aggressive and benign tumors. This study explored the value of numerical abnormalities for 10 different chromosomes in meningiomas for predicting relapse-free survival (RFS).
