Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical related factors that affecting peritumoral brain edema (PTBE) and its severity in meningiomas.Methods:A total of 139 patients with meningiomas, admitted to and underwent surgery in our hospital from from January 2017 to October 2020 were chosen; their clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. Meningioma volume and edema volume were calculated from drawn regions of interest on preoperative MRI images by 3D-slicer software. Edema index (EI) was used to evaluate the severity of PTBE. The clinical factors affecting PTBE and EI were determined by statistical methods, and the value of meningioma volume in predicting PTBE was further analyzed.Results:(1) The PTBE incidence was 33.8% (47/139), and average EI was 2.47±0.73. (2) Univariate analysis showed that there was significant difference in percentage of patients with benign/malignant meningiomas, meningioma location, meningioma volume, and Ki-67 index between patients from PTBE group ( n=47) and non-PTBE group ( n=92, P<0.05). Multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that benign/malignant meningiomas and meningioma volumes were independent risk factors for PTBE ( P<0.05). (3) There were significant differences in EI values among patients with different gender, WHO grading, KI-67 index and meningioma volumes ( P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed meningioma malignant degrees and meningioma volume were independent risk factors for EI ( P<0.05). (4) Receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the area under curve of meningiomas of the cranial base and non-meningiomas of the cranial base in predicting PTBE was 0.824 and 0.825, respectively, with sensitivity of 0.800 and 0.784, and with specificity of 0.818 and 0.729. Conclusions:(1) Malignant degrees and meningioma volumes are the main factors affecting the incidence of PTBE, and are positively correlated with EI. (2) Meningioma volume has high predictive value in PTBE occurrence.
