- Even benign tumors may show extensive local spread - considerable morbidity and mortality.
- Metastases are rare and then usu. after surgery.
- May be malignant - bad prognosis.
- Factors associated with unfavourable prognosis:
Genetics
- May be seen in genetic disorders such as:
- Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2).[7]

Morphologic subtypes
- Many subtypes exist.[17]
- The histologic subtypes generally don't have much prognostic significance.
- Some subtypes are high grade by definition; also see histologic grading.
Grade I
Meningothelial meningioma
- Most common.
Microscopic:
- Syncytial, nuclear clearing (pseudoinclusions).
- Whorls, Onion bulb formations.
- Few psammoma bodies.
Molecular:
- AKT E17K mutations.[18]
Fibrous meningioma
- AKA fibroblastic meningioma.
- Not collagen... but looks like it.
- It is really laminin or fibronectin.
- Spindle cells in parallel bundles.
- Few to none whorl formations.
Transitional meningioma
- AKA mixed.
- Common.
- Lobular and fasicular growth patterns coexist.
- Usu. a mixture of meningeothelial and fibromatous meningioma
Psammomatous meningioma
Microscopic:
- Psammoma bodies dominate over tumor cells.
- Irregular calcifications (confluent psammoma bodies).
- Usually found in spinal cord.
Angiomatous meningioma
- AKA vascular.
- May bleed like stink.
- May show extensive edema.
- Hyalinized vessels dominate over tumor cells.
- Degenerative nuclear atypia.
DDx:
- Vascular malformatons
- Hemangioblastoma
Microcystic meningioma
Microscopic:
- Cystic appearance.
- Increased cytologic pleomorphism of the elongated cells.
DDx:
- Clear cell meningioma
- Hemangioblastoma
Secretory meningioma
- Associated with brain edema; may have a worse outcome.
Microscopic:[19]
Molecular:
- Combined KLF4 K409Q and TRAF7 mutations.[20]
DDx:
- Metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma.
- Pituitary adenoma

- Lymphoplasmacyte-rich meningioma - case 3 - several images (upmc.edu).
Metaplastic meningioma
- No clinical significance.
- Probably do not represent true metaplasia in all cases.
- Clincal information is rquired to distinguish between bone invasion and meningiomas with bone formation.
Microscopic:
- Cartilage or bone formation.
- Myxoid or xanthomatous changes.
Grade II
Brain invasive meningioma
- Invades the brain (irregular, tongue-like).
- Absence of leptomeningeal layer.
- Brain invasion can be present in grade I tumors, these are then classified as "atypical", ie. as grade II tumors.
- The prognostic significance of brain invasion is still unclear, some studies do not show a course similiar to grade II meningiomas.[22][23][24]
Images:
Clear cell meningioma
Epidemiology:
- Usu. spinal cord.[25]
Microscopic:

Other morphological variants
These are currently not listed in the WHO as separate entities.
Histologic grading
Grading:[17]
- Grade 1:

- B. Three of the following five features:
- Clear cell or chordoid subtype.
- Brain-invasive meningioma.
- Grade 3 (either of the following):

Molecular

Several inherited diseases are associated with meningiomas:
- Neurofibromatosis type II[32]
- Germline SMARCE1 and SMARCB1 mutations[33][34]
- Loss of SUFU (SHH-Pathway).[35]
- Rare YAP1 fusions in a subset of pediatric meningioma (HIPPO pathyway).[36]
Methylation profiling distinguishes two major groups with six distinct clinically relevant methylation classes.[37]
DDx of meningioma & IHC[38]
- S-100 strong +ve - schwannoma.
- +ve in ~80% of fibrous meningiomas.
- CD34 +ve - solitary fibrous tumour.
- +ve in ~60% of fibrous meningiomas.
- STAT6 nuclear +ve: solitary fibrous tumour.
- EMA +ve in ~30% of solitary fibrous tumour/hemangiopericytoma.
