Meningioma Treatment Without Surgery? What Patients Should Know

Being diagnosed with a meningioma can be unsettling. But not every meningioma requires immediate treatment. Dr. Antonio Santacroce, MD, neurosurgeon and radiation oncologist at the European Radiosurgery Center Munich (ERCM), explains why treatment decisions must be made carefully and individually. The size, location, and growth pattern of the tumor, as well as the symptoms and the preservation of neurological function, play a decisive role in this process. Modern radiosurgery has established itself as an important treatment option for carefully selected meningiomas. It delivers highly focused radiation in a single session or in a small number of fractions with the goal of achieving long-term tumor control – while protecting surrounding healthy tissue and preserving quality of life. The key message: There is no one-size-fits-all solution for treating meningiomas. Active surveillance, microsurgery, or radiosurgery may each be the right approach – depending on the individual case. ▬▬▬▬▬ Make an appointment ▬▬▬▬▬ Do you have any questions about treatment or radiosurgery?
