Meningioma

Meningioma is a type of tumor that grows from the meninges, the three layers of tissue that wrap and protect the brain and spinal cord. Some tumors are benign and don鈥檛 need immediate treatment. But some meningiomas are atypical, meaning the cells act more aggressively, grow more quickly, and require treatment. Our neurosurgeons, neurologists, and radiation oncologists work together to assess the growth and appearance of these tumors and create a personalized treatment plan for you.
