Meningioma is the most common type of primary brain tumor. Surgical resection followed by surveillance is the first-line treatment for the majority of symptomatic meningiomas; however, recent advances in molecular sequencing, DNA methylation, proteomics, and single-cell sequencing provide insights into further characterizing this heterogeneous group of tumors with a wide range of prognoses. A subset of these tumors are highly aggressive and cause severe morbidity and mortality. Therefore, identifying those individuals with a poor prognosis and intervening are critical. This review aims to help readers interpret the molecular profiling of meningiomas to identify patients with worse prognoses and guide the management and strategy for surveillance.
脑膜瘤是最常见的原发性脑肿瘤。手术切除加监测是大多数有症状脑膜瘤的一线治疗方法;然而,分子测序、DNA 甲基化、蛋白质组学和单细胞测序的最新进展为进一步描述这组具有广泛预后的异质性肿瘤提供了线索。这些肿瘤的一部分具有高度侵袭性,导致严重的发病率和死亡率。因此,识别那些预后不良的个体并进行干预至关重要。本综述旨在帮助读者解读脑膜瘤的分子分析,以确定预后较差的患者,并指导管理和监测策略。
