Results In all 23 cases,tumors in 17 cases were removed totally,and 6 cases were removed subtotally In the 6 cases whose tumors were resected subtotally,there were 4 cases related with major sinus and its venous flow uncompleted compensation, 2 cases related with adhering compactly to the brain stem invaded by tumors,major vessels or cranial nerves Conclusions Heading factors restricting microsurgical total resection of menigiomas on tentorium and confluence of sinuses may be related with major sinus invaded by tumor and its venous flow uncompleted compensation, tumors adhering compactly to the brain stem,major vessels or cranial nerves
