It has different clinical features, imaging features, and long-term results from other locations. This study investigated the epidemiology, clinical characteristics and prognosis of LVM and comprehensively describes its characteristics.Methods: This article analyzes the LVMs that were diagnosed pathologically in West China hospital between January 1, 2009 and July 1 2020. Demographic information, imaging characteristics and prognostic factors are discussed. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 23.0 and R version 3.5.3.Results: We collected 7202 meningiomas and 195 LVMs (136 females; median age, 46 years; range, 5â 81 years) were included in this study. Gross total resection was completed in 189 patients. The OS rate was 93.8%, and the recurrence rate was 5.2%. Multivariate regression analysis showed that sex (P = 0.01) and tumor size (P = 0.018) were related to WHO grade. Postoperative KPS (P = 0.003) was associated with OS. WHO grade (P = 0.025), extent of tumor resection (P < 0.001), and hospital day (P=0.028) were associated with recurrence.Conclusion: LVMs require long-term follow-up, individualized treatment, and follow-up strategies to be formulated according to the relevant risk factors.Keywords: lateral ventricular meningiomas, imaging features, prognosis, recurrence |
