Abstract | Although benign in histology, the hypervascularity and skull base location of meningiomas can make them surgically challenging lesions. Preoperative endovascular embolization with superselective microcatheterization of vascular pedicles may be efficacious in decreasing intraoperative transfusion requirements with equivocal postoperative functional benefit. The potential benefits of preoperative embolization should be weighed against the risks of ischemic complications. Appropriate patient selection is critical. All patients should be monitored closely postembolization, and a course of steroids can be considered to minimize neurologic symptoms. |
