Definitive embolization of meningiomas: a 20-year updated systematic review

This review is limited by low-quality evidence of the existing literature. Nevertheless, the evidence suggests that standalone bland embolization appears technically feasible and may provide symptom improvement and moderate tumor control in selected intracranial meningiomas, without precluding subsequent surgery or radiation. These findings provibaseline outcome data, establish a precedent for possible pragmatic trials, and may inform the design and interpretation of future endovascular therapy studies for meningioma.
