Tumors of Meningeal and Related Tissues

  • Chapter
Brain Tumors

Abstract

The meningiomas are the most important types of mesodermal tumors. Macroscopically uniform, they can be subdivided histologically into 3 (Zülch 1951 b), 10, or 22 (Bailey and Bucy 1931; Cushing and Eisenhardt 1938) subtypes. Biologically, as Cushing himself admitted (Cushing and Eisenhardt 1938), this subdivision has no great significance. The WHO classification has compromised on 9 histological subtypes.
