Abstract
The results suggest that intracranial CCM has its own unique clinical features compared with the other 2 types of grade II meningiomas. Patients with subtotally resected tumors, males, or those who did not receive postoperative radiotherapy are at greater risk of recurrence. GTR should be the primary goal in the surgical management of intracranial CCMs. Our data also highlight the value of radiotherapy in intracranial CCM patients.
