Overall, 128 consecutive patients ≥ 70 years of age with intracranial SBMs operated between 1990 and 2010 were compared to 193 consecutive patients ≥ 70 years of age with NSBMs operated within the same time period. Median age at surgery was 75.0 years (mean 75.7, range 70.0–92.4). Follow-up was complete with median 4.7 years (mean 5.5, range 0–19). The female-to-male ratio was 2.8 for SBMs and 1.3 for NSBMs (p |
