Intracranial meningiomas are characteristically benign tumours with a tendency to recur following surgical resection. Our group is investigating the pathogenesis of meningioma recurrence. In our initial studies we identified two cases of dural "tails" associated with intracranial meningiomas. Gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance images were utilized to identify the dural "tails" preoperatively. These images aided us in performing a more complete surgical resection of the meningiomas. Histopathological confirmation of meningotheliomatous cell infiltration into the dural "tails" demonstrates their surgical significance.
颅内脑膜瘤是典型的良性肿瘤，手术切除后有复发倾向。我们的团队正在研究脑膜瘤复发的发病机制。在我们最初的研究中，我们发现了两例与颅内脑膜瘤相关的硬脑膜“尾征”。钆增强磁共振成像用于术前识别硬脑膜“尾征”。这些图像有助于我们更完整地手术切除脑膜瘤。脑膜上皮细胞浸润到硬脑膜“尾征”中的组织病理学证实了它们的手术意义。
