Abstract
Meningiomas in children are poorly understood because they are rare. Recent reports have provided a more complete description of their incidence, genetics, imaging features, and outcome. In general, meningiomas in children are more likely to be higher grade, present in atypical locations, and have a higher risk of recurrence. The challenges encountered in children with respect to surgical and postoperative management are unique. Improved understanding of pediatric meningiomas, as well as the availability of new surgical, medical, and radiation therapies, creates opportunities to improve outcomes in this unique population.
