ABSTRACT
Parafalcine and parasagittal (PFPS) are common locations for meningiomas. Surgical resection for these tumors, the first-line treatment, poses challenges due to their proximity to critical structures. This systematic review investigates the use of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) as a treatment for PFPS meningiomas, aiming to elucidate its safety and efficacy. The review adhered to PRISMA guidelines. Searches were conducted on MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane. Inclusion criteria involved studies on SRS for PFPS meningiomas, reporting procedure outcomes and complications. Tumors were presumed or confirmed to be WHO grade 1. Data was systematically extracted. Meta-analysis was performed where applicable. The review included data from eight studies, 821 patients with 878 lesions. Tumor control was achieved in greater than 80% of cases. Adverse radiation effects were reported in 7.3% of them. Recurrence and further surgical approach were observed in 17.1% and 9.2% of cases, respectively. Symptom improvement was noted in 33.2% of patients. Edema occurred in approximately 25.1% of patients. A subgroup of 283 patients had upfront SRS, achieving tumor control in approximately 97% of such cases. SRS is a safe and effective treatment for PFPS meningiomas, both as an adjuvant therapy and as an upfront treatment for often smaller tumors. Post-SRS edema can typically be managed medically and usually does not require further surgical intervention. Further studies should provide more specific data on PFPS meningiomas. The use of single and hypofractionated SRS for larger volume PFPS meningiomas should be more explored to better define the risks and benefits.
