Popis: The diagnosis of anaplastic meningioma (AM) (WHO grade III) is based on the presence of a high mitotic index (MI) and/or overt anaplasia. Only few data exist about the reproducibility and prognostic value of overt anaplasia. Additionally, the prognostic value of H3K27me3 loss in AM has not yet been demonstrated. Our objectives were to evaluate the reproducibility and prognostic value of WHO criteria and H3K27me3 loss in a multicenter series of 66 AM. Interobserver reproducibility was good for the determination of WHO grade (Kappa = 0.671) and MI (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.649), and fair for assessment of overt anaplasia (Kappa = 0.366). Patients with meningiomas showing high MI had significantly shorter overall survival (OS) than patients with meningiomas showing overt anaplasia without high MI (p = 0.009). OS was significantly lower in case of overt anaplasia with low MI (
