Convexity meningiomas are considered low-risk tumors, with high possibility of cure and low risk of relapse after resection. Very few studies have investigated meningiomas located in or around highly eloquent regions (namely perirolandic and perisylvian fissures).

Abstract

Convexity meningiomas are considered low-risk tumors, with high possibility of cure and low risk of relapse after resection. Very few studies have investigated meningiomas located in or around highly eloquent regions (namely perirolandic and perisylvian fissures). This study aimed to determine the differences in preoperative characteristics and postoperative outcomes between convexity meningiomas at eloquent area and non-eloquent areas.
