Meningioma metastasis is a rare event, observed primarily in World Health Organization (WHO) grade 3 tumors, although it has also been reported in WHO grade 1 meningiomas. This study aims at clarifying whether the metastasis of a WHO grade 1 meningioma was associated with genetic abnormalities commonly found in cases that are more aggressive.

Abstract

Meningioma metastasis is a rare event, observed primarily in World Health Organization (WHO) grade 3 tumors, although it has also been reported in WHO grade 1 meningiomas. This study aims at clarifying whether the metastasis of a WHO grade 1 meningioma was associated with genetic abnormalities commonly found in cases that are more aggressive.
