Dynamic Intraoperative Assessment of Draining Veins in Parasagittal Meningiomas: Changing the Paradigm?
We read with interest the recent article by Wang et al.1 focusing on classification and evaluation of peritumoral veins in parasagittal meningiomas. In brief, the authors retrospectively evaluated a surgical series of 156 patients harboring parasagittal and falcine meningiomas who underwent preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with venous magnetic resonance angiography (MRV). Based on MRV findings, the authors distinguished 4 venous morphological types: superficial cortical, deep, meningeal, and compound.
