Please help! what is the survival rate of malignant meningioma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Malignant meningioma: Malignant meningiomas are a complex tumor and the rate of survival is based on the patient's response to both chemotherapy and radiation therapy - these are complex tumors and typically need very aggressive therapy both surgical and postsurgical with chemotherapy and radiation therapy
