Can calcified menigioma grow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Almost all meningiomas have some calcification in the lesions. The purple balls in the attached microscopic photo of a meningioma are calcifications. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless. Practice safe sex.
