Does Simpson 1 Resection of Spinal Meningiomas Lead to Lower Tumor Relapse or Increase of CSF Leaks? A 40-year Single-Center Experience
Gross total resection including the affected dura may reduce the risk of tumor relapse and is not associated with a higher rate of CSF leaks in dorsal spinal meningiomas. Resection of only the inner dural layer is a valid alternative to achieve Simpson 1 resection.
