The life expectancy of meningioma patients without surgical treatment needs to be determined by the location, size, and growth rate of the meningioma and cannot be generalized. Most meningiomas are benign tumors that grow slowly and are a nudging, compressive damage to surrounding brain tissue and neural structures. If the meningioma is small and the patient is asymptomatic, it may survive for a long time even if it fails to be treated with timely surgery, for which no clinical statistics are available. However, if the tumor continues to grow, it may cause brain herniation, which carries a risk of life-threatening injury. For huge meningiomas, meningiomas with significant peripheral edema, and meningiomas with intra-tumor hemorrhage, if timely surgery is not performed, patient survival will be significantly affected and may even be life-threatening in a short period of time. Therefore, it is recommended that meningioma patients who are in good health and have no contraindications to surgery may be considered for early surgical management and may even have the possibility of complete cure.
