Description
Tiara Aninditha and six colleagues study, in a 2026 review of records, how meningioma position shapes symptoms and tumor grade. Meningiomas are the commonest primary brain tumors, and their behavior depends on where they sit. The team gathered 531 adults operated for a first meningioma over ten years at Indonesia's national hospital in Jakarta.
Women made up an overwhelming 92 percent of patients, with a median age of forty-five. Skull base tumors dominated, at about 77 percent. Those deep tumors paired more often with female sex, younger age, the mildest grade, and nerve and vision problems, yet they were also harder to remove fully. Tumors on the brain's outer surface announced themselves with headache, weakness, sensory loss, seizures, and clouded consciousness. The authors say the map of associations can prime surgeons and patients for what a given location is likely to bring.
