Abstrakt: Background. Meningiomas may be accompanied by peritumoral edema. Incidence and pathogenesis of edema are nor clearly established. Prevalence and severity of edema vary significantly in patients with meningiomas similar in various parameters.
Objective: To assess peritumoral edema in intracranial meningiomas and factors influencing incidence and severity of this process.
Material and Methods: There were 126 patients (69% women) aged 19-76 years (median 53), who were diagnosed with 142 meningiomas. Patients underwent surgery ( n =111) and radiotherapy ( n =15) in 2016-2018. The MRI protocol included T1, T2, T2-FLAIR, DWI and post-contrast T1-weighted images in three projections, diffusion tensor MRI in 27 cases and MR spectroscopy in 21 patients.
Results: Peritumoral edema was detected in 46% ( n =66) of cases including 21 (31%) patients with severe edema. The ALPS index was 1.510±0.1931 in meningiomas without edema and 1.308±0.19 in those with edema ( p =0.014). There was positive correlation between edema, dimensions and uneven contours of meningioma, as well as negative correlation with CSF cleft sign. Blood flow velocity was higher in atypical and anaplastic meningiomas with edema ( p =0.03). Other signs (localization, histological variant, malignancy grade, characteristics of MR signal, peaks of the main metabolites, diffusion and perfusion parameters of tumor) did not significantly affect peritumoral edema in patients with meningiomas ( p >0.05).
Conclusion: Diffusion tensor tomography with ALPS index revealed significant effect of glymphatic system dysfunction on peritumoral edema. Large meningioma with uneven contours increased the risk of peritumoral edema, while CSF cleft sign reduced this risk. Other factors did not affect cerebral edema in meningiomas.
