Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Radiation-induced meningioma is a known long-term complication of radiation exposure. • WHO grade I radiation-induced meningiomas demonstrate higher rates of proliferation than sporadic meningioma. • Higher rates of proliferation and grade II meningioma in this cohort suggest this is different from sporadic meningioma. • WHO grade I radiation-induced meningiomas require further prospective study.
