Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Meningiomas are the most common primary tumours of the central nervous system. This study aimed to provide comprehensive nationwide estimates on the incidence, prevalence and prognostic impact of meningioma diagnosis in the Netherlands. METHODS Adult patients diagnosed with meningioma in 2000-2019 were selected from the Dutch Brain Tumour Registry (DBTR), part of the Netherlands Cancer Registry (NCR). Time trends in age-adjusted incidence and prevalence rates were evaluated using the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC). Relative survival rates were calculated using the Pohar Perme estimator. Case completeness of the DBTR/NCR was estimated through record linkage with one of the Dutch neuro-oncology centres. RESULTS From a total of 23,454 cases of meningioma, 11,306 (48.2%) were histologically confirmed and 12,148 (51.8%) were radiological diagnoses. Over time, the incidence of diagnosis increased from 46.9 per 1,000,000 inhabitants (European Standardized Rate [ESR]) to 107.3 (EAPC 4.7%, p < 0.01), with an increase in the incidence of radiological diagnoses from 14.0 to 70.2 per 1,000,000 ESR (EAPC 9.1%, p < 0.01). The prevalence of meningioma was estimated at 1012/1,000,000 on 1 January 2020, with almost 17,800 individuals having had a diagnosis of meningioma. Relative survival rate at 10 years for grade 1 meningiomas was 91.0% (95% confidence interval [CI] 89.4%-92.3%), 71.3% (95% CI 66.8%-75.2%) for grade 2 meningiomas and 36.4% (95% CI 27.3%-45.6%) for grade 3 meningiomas. Local case completeness was estimated at 97.6% for histologically confirmed meningiomas and 84.5% for radiological diagnoses. CONCLUSION With a near-complete registry, meningioma prevalence was estimated at over 1000 per 1,000,000 inhabitants.

Abstract
Meningioma is the most common benign intracranial tumor and is believed to arise from arachnoid cap cells of arachnoid granulations. We sought to develop a population-based atlas from pre-treatment MRIs to explore the distribution of intracranial meningiomas and to explore risk factors for development of intracranial meningiomas in different locations. All adults (≥ 18 years old) diagnosed with intracranial meningiomas and referred to the department of neurosurgery from a defined catchment region between 2006 and 2015 were eligible for inclusion. Pre-treatment T1 contrast-enhanced MRI-weighted brain scans were used for semi-automated tumor segmentation to develop the meningioma atlas. Patient variables used in the statistical analyses included age, gender, tumor locations, WHO grade and tumor volume. A total of 602 patients with intracranial meningiomas were identified for the development of the brain tumor atlas from a wide and defined catchment region. The spatial distribution of meningioma within the brain is not uniform, and there were more tumors in the frontal region, especially parasagittally, along the anterior part of the falx, and on the skull base of the frontal and middle cranial fossa. More than 2/3 meningioma patients were females (p < 0.001) who also were more likely to have multiple meningiomas (p < 0.01), while men more often have supratentorial meningiomas (p < 0.01). Tumor location was not associated with age or WHO grade. The distribution of meningioma exhibits an anterior to posterior gradient in the brain. Distribution of meningiomas in the general population is not dependent on histopathological WHO grade, but may be gender-related.

Postcentral gyrus resection of opercular gliomas is a risk factor for motor deficits caused by damaging the radiologically invisible arteries supplying the descending motor pathway. Acta Neurochir (Wien) 2021; 163:1269-1278.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative motor deficits are among the worst morbidities of glioma surgery. We aim to investigate factors associated with postoperative motor deficits in patients with frontoparietal opercular gliomas. METHODS Thirty-four patients with frontoparietal opercular gliomas were retrospectively investigated. We examined the postoperative ischemic changes and locations obtained from MRI. RESULTS Twenty-one patients (62%) presented postoperative ischemic changes. Postoperative MRI was featured with ischemic changes, all located at the subcortical area of the resection cavity. Six patients had postoperative motor deficits, whereas 28 patients did not. Compared to those without motor deficits, those with motor deficits were associated with old age, pre- and postcentral gyri resection, and postcentral gyrus resection (P = 0.023, 0,024, and 0.0060, respectively). A merged image of the resected cavity and T1-weighted brain atlas of the Montreal Neurological Institute showed that a critical area for postoperative motor deficits is the origin of the long insular arteries (LIAs) and the postcentral gyrus. Detail anatomical architecture created by the Human Connectome Project database and T2-weighted images showed that the subcortical area of the operculum of the postcentral gyrus is where the medullary arteries supply, and the motor pathways originated from the precentral gyrus run. CONCLUSIONS We verified that the origin of the LIAs could damage the descending motor pathways during the resection of frontoparietal opercular gliomas. Also, we identified that motor pathways run the subcortical area of the operculum of the postcentral gyrus, indicating that the postcentral gyrus is an unrecognized area of damaging the descending motor pathways.

Abstract
Subjective fatigue correlated with phasic alertness default mode activation in brain tumor patients. Subjective fatigue did not correlate with phasic alertness central executive activation in brain tumor patients. Default mode activation is a candidate for developing a biomarker for fatigue in brain tumor patients.
Background Many brain tumor patients suffer from fatigue which severely affects their quality of life. There is a lack of objective measurements for fatigue in brain tumor patients. We aimed to find a neurophysiological correlate for fatigue in brain tumor patients. For this purpose, we correlated brain activity associated with phasic alertness with self-reported ratings of fatigue. Methods Patients with a meningioma, a low-grade glioma or a high-grade glioma (N = 63) participated in this fMRI study. Brain activity in the central executive network (CEN) and default mode network (DMN) associated with phasic alertness was correlated with self-reported fatigue measured with the multidimensional fatigue inventory (MFI-20). Follow-up analyses were performed for MFI-20 domain scores, individual regions within CEN and DMN, and the tumor sub-groups separately. Results MFI-20 scores correlated significantly with DMN activity associated with phasic alertness, but not with CEN activity. These results were consistent for each tumor sub-group. Within the DMN, the correlations were strongest in left and right lingual cortex, left and right cuneus, and right precuneus. Discussion Self-reported fatigue in brain tumor patients was associated with objective measurements of brain activity, specifically the DMN activity related to phasic alertness. This association represents an important step in the development of a biomarker for fatigue in brain tumor patients, and possibly for other patients that suffer from fatigue.

The Preferred Locations of Meningioma According to Different Biological Characteristics Based on Voxel-Wise Analysis. Front Oncol 2020; 10:1412. [PMID: 32974148 PMCID: PMC7472960 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.01412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2020] [Accepted: 07/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: Meningiomas presented preferred intracranial distribution, which may reflect potential biological natures. This study aimed to analyze the preferred locations of meningioma according to different biological characteristics. Method: A total of 1,107 patients pathologically diagnosed with meningiomas between January 2012 and December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative MRI were normalized, and lesions were semiautomatically segmented. The stereospecific frequency and p value heatmaps were constructed to compare two biological phenotypes using two-tailed Fisher's exact test. Age, sex, WHO grades, extent of resection (EOR), recurrence, and immunohistochemical markers including p53, Ki67, epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), progesterone receptor (PR), and CD34 were statistically analyzed. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Result: Of 1,107 cases, convexity (20.8%), parasagittal (16.1%), and falx (11.4%) were the most predominant loci of meningiomas. The p-value heatmap suggested lesion predominance in the left frontal and occipital convexity among older patients while in the left sphenoid wing, and right falx, parasellar/cavernous sinus, and middle fossa among younger patients. Lesions located at anterior fossa and frontal structures were more frequently seen in the male while left parietal falx and tentorial regions, and right cerebellopontine angle in the female. Grades II and III lesions presented predominance in the frontal structures compared with grade I ones. Meningiomas at the left parasagittal sinus and falx, tentorium, intraventricular regions, and skull-base structures were significantly to receive subtotal resection. Lesions with p53 positivity were statistically located at the left frontal regions and parasellar/cavernous sinus, higher Ki67 index at the left frontal and bilateral parietal convexity and right parasellar/cavernous sinus, EMA negativity at the right olfactory groove and left middle fossa, and CD34 positivity at the sellar regions and right sphenoid wing. Tumor recurrence rates for grades I, II, and III were 2.8, 7.9, and 53.8%, respectively. Inferior RFS, higher Ki67 index, grades II and III, and a larger preoperative volume were observed in older patients. Recurrent meningiomas were more frequently found at the occipital convexity, tentorium, sellar regions, parasagittal sinus, and left sphenoid wing. Conclusion: The preferred locations of meningioma could be observed according to different biological characteristics, which might be helpful for clinical decisions.

[PMID: 32237258 DOI: 10.1111/jon.12701] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2020] [Revised: 02/23/2020] [Accepted: 02/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To investigate the preferred location of intracranial hemangiopericytomas (IHPCs) with voxel-based mapping and 3-dimensional reconstruction from MRI data. METHODS Gadolinium-enhanced tumors of 258 primary and single IHPCs were segmented semi-automatically, followed by manual checking and editing of boundaries. The lesions were registered to Montreal Neurological Institute standard anatomical space, and heat-map and 3-dimensional rendered frequency images were generated. All tumors were then superimposed on the Anatomical Automatic Labeling (AAL) template to further investigate the difference in the tumor location based on the voxel-wise frequency of occurrence with respect to laterality, sex, age, and pathologic grade. RESULTS The 3-dimensional rendered images show that the tumors commonly located in the posterior cranial cavity, surrounding the tentorium. The posterior third of the superior sagittal sinus and the confluence of sinuses were commonly affected. According to the analysis of tumor occurrence frequency in the AAL template, IHPCs were mainly observed in the limbic lobe, occipital lobe, and cerebellum. Tumors in younger patients preferentially located in the right occipital region (P = .027), whereas those with higher pathological grade more often located in the left parietal lobe (P = .034). CONCLUSIONS This is the first voxel-based study to explore the predilection site of IHPCs. Our study suggests that these tumors commonly affect the posterior cranial cavity, adjoining the tentorium and venous sinus. Further research is needed to investigate the possible factors underlying these topographic preferences.
