Abstract
Background: Meningiomas are tumours originating from meningothelial cells. They are commonly located at intracranial, intraspinal or occasionally ectopic site. They show histological diversity and are categorized into three grades by WHO 2007 Classication. This grading helps in predicting their behaviour and deciding treatment strategy. To study the frequency, clinical details, histological typing and grad Aims and Objective: ing of 50 cases of meningiomas. To evaluate diagnostic accuracy of radio-imaging and there correlation with histopathological diagnosis is made Total 50 cases of histopathologically conrmed cases of meningiomas were studied with above men Methods: tioned aims and objectives. Analysis of histological features, typing and grading of all cases were done. Result: Meningioma are the most common extra-axial tumour. Obvious female predominance was observed. The most common histological subtype was meningothelial followed by broblastic. In all cases radiological diagnosis correlated with histopathological diagnosis Conclusion: Meningiomas are slow growing extra-axial tumours majority being intracranial, benign grade I followed by grade II and rarely grade III neoplasms occurring most commonly in elderly females
