Abstrakt:	Treatment of craniovertebral junction meningioma is a difficult task. Surgical treatment is the gold standard for these patients. However, it is associated with high risk of neurological impairment, while combined treatment (surgery + radiotherapy) provides more favorable outcomes. Objective: To present the results of surgical and combined treatment of patients with craniovertebral junction meningioma. Material and Methods: There were 196 patients with craniovertebral junction meningioma who underwent surgical or combined (surgery + radiotherapy) treatment at the Burdenko Neurosurgery Center between January 2005 and June 2022. The sample included 151 women and 45 men (3.4:1). Resection of tumor was performed in 97.4% of patients, craniovertebral junction decompression with dural defect closure - 2%, ventriculoperitoneostomy - 0.5%. As the second stage, 40 patients (20.4%) underwent radiotherapy. Results: Total resection was achieved in 106 patients (55.2%), subtotal - 63 (32.8%), partial - 20 (10.4%), tumor biopsy was performed in 3 (1.6%) cases. Intraoperative complications occurred in 8 patients (4%), postoperative complications - in 19 (9.7%) cases. Radiosurgery was carried out in 6 (15%) patients, hypofractionated irradiation - 15 (37.5%), standard fractionation - 19 (47.5%) patients. Tumor growth control after combined treatment made up 84%. Conclusion: Clinical outcomes in patients with craniovertebral junction meningioma depend on tumor dimensions, topographic and anatomical localization of tumor, resection quality and relationship with surrounding structures. Combined treatment of anterior and anterolateral meningiomas of the craniovertebral junction is preferable compared to total resection.
