Commentary “Predicting the Probability of Meningioma Recurrence in the Preoperative and Early Postoperative Period: A Multivariate Analysis in the Midterm Follow-Up”

İldan and coworkers studied the factors predicting recurrence after complete resection of meningiomas in the MRI era. Their findings are interesting and speak for themselves. It is important to note that there was a difference between Simpson Grade I and Grade II resection of meningiomas. The authors did not assess the value of radiosurgery or radiotherapy. It would be interesting to know if subtotal resection (Grade II or Grade III) followed by radiotherapy is associated with the same recurrence rate as a Simpson Grade I excision. This question, for instance, is pertinent for skull base meningiomas.
