Abstract:

Objective: To investigate the surgical strategy for large and giant recurrent meningiomas near the middle and posterior third part of the superior sagittal sinus with extracranial invading. Methods: The clinical data of 16 patients with large and giant recurrent meningioma in the middle and posterior third part of the superior sagittal sinus with extracranial invasion who underwent surgery in the Department of Neurosurgery of Peking University Third Hospital from May 2019 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients underwent brain-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance venography (MRV), computed tomography angiography (CTA) and three-dimensional skull computed tomography (CT) before, to evaluate the extent of tumor invasion, the edema of brain tissue, the degree of skull damage, the blood supply of the tumor, and the degree of compression of the superior sagittal sinus, etc, and to formulate an individualized surgical plan. The neurological function of the patients was evaluated 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after the operation, and the tumor condition was evaluated by brain-enhanced MRI 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after the operation. Results: The tumors in the 16 patients were all located in the middle and posterior 1/3 part of the superior sagittal sinus and invaded extracranially. Among them, 8 cases were operated for the second time, 6 cases for the third time, and 2 cases for the fourth time; In the last operation, the bone flap was used to repair the skull in 4 cases, and the titanium mesh was used in 12 cases; Tumor arterials of 3 cases were embolized under digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Tumors of 10 cases were resected at Simpson grade Ⅰ, and 6 cases at Simpson grade Ⅱ; 2 cases underwent decompressive craniectomy during operation, and 14 cases underwent cranioplasty at the same time; scalp incisions of 14 cases were directly sutured, and flap transposition was used in 14 cases. When evaluating nerve function after operation, the limb muscle strength was improved compared with that before operation, and the Karnofsky performance scale (KPS) score reached 100 points 3 months after operation. During the follow-up, 1 patient's tumor recurred after 1 year and received Gamma Knife treatment, and the rest of the patients had no recurrence during the follow-up period. Conclusion: Surgical treatment is the first choice for large and giant recurrent meningiomas near the middle and posterior third part of the superior sagittal sinus with extracranial invading. It is a safe and effective surgical method to take individualized surgical plan after detailed preoperative assessment of cerebral edema, tumor blood supply, venous sinus compression, and scalp invasion.

Figure 1

Male, 56 years old, left parietal parasagittal recurrent meningioma A-C, preoperative axial, sagittal, and coronal enhanced MRI show that the tumor size is 6 cm×5 cm, located in the middle and posterior segment of the superior sagittal sinus, destroying the skull and invading the scalp, but the scalp is not damaged; D, MRI T2 fluid attenuated inversion recovery (T2 flair) sequence shows that edema of the brain tissue surrounding the tumor is evident, and the midline of the brain is slightly shifted to the right; E, CTA shows that The tumor invades extracranially along the edge of the bone window, and the extracranial blood supply of the tumor mainly comes from the superficial temporal artery and the occipital artery; F, MRV shows that there are abundant intracranial and extracranial drainage veins around the tumor, and the superior sagittal sinus is occluded; G, DSA shows that the intracranial blood supply of the tumor comes from the brain Anterior artery and middle cerebral artery; H, multimodal image reconstruction model simulates the incision and bone window extent and tumor exposure, the yellow solid line is the scalp incision, the black dotted line is the bone window, and the green is the tumor; I, postoperative CT shows that the tumor resection is satisfactory, and the edema in the surgical area is still obvious, the skull in the surgical area is removed.

Figure 2

Male, 53 years old, recurrent meningioma of frontal and parietal lobes after 3 resections A-C, preoperative axial, sagittal, and coronal enhanced MRI show that the tumor size was about 12 cm×10 cm, located on frontal and parietal lobes, invades the middle of the superior sagittal sinus, the superior sagittal sinus is completely surrounded by the tumor, the tumor breaks through titanium mesh for skull repair and invades the scalp, and the scalp is destroyed; D, MRI T2 fluid attenuated inversion recovery (T2 flair) sequence shows mild edema in the brain tissue surrounding the tumor; E, CTA (left view) shows that the tumor invades the extracranial along the titanium mesh, and the extracranial blood supply of the tumor mainly comes from the superficial temporal artery; F, CTA (right view) shows that the intracranial blood supply of the tumor comes from the anterior cerebral artery and middle cerebral artery; G, MRV shows that the tumor has abundant drainage veins in the intracranial and extracranial periphery, the superior sagittal sinus is occluded; H, (right view) appearance of the head before surgery; I, (back view) repair scalp defects with flap transposition; J, (anterior view) appearance of the head after surgery, and flap heals well; K, extracranial tumor removed during surgery; L, postoperative CT shows that the tumor resection is satisfactory, the edema in the operation area was not obvious, and the shape of the skull repaired with titanium mesh is satisfactory.
