Abstract

|
Study Design: Review article.
Objectives: This review aims to present relevant considerations for the surgical treatment of spinal meningioma and recently used surgical approaches.
Summary of Literature Review: Since Victor Horsely reported surgical resection using laminectomy in 1,887, the surgical treatment of spinal meningioma has been expected to have better results than other spinal cord tumors.
Materials and Methods: Review of the relevant articles.
Results: The classification of surgical resection of spinal meningioma follows the Simpson classification, and the goal of surgical treatment is radical resection. For radical resection of spinal meningioma, the surgeon must consider the location, shape, calcification, degree of malignant differentiation, and postoperative complications.
Conclusions: Spinal meningioma is a predominantly intradural extramedullary tumor, and good results can be expected through surgical treatment. The appropriate approach for surgical treatment depends on the anatomical location and shape of the tumor.
