Meningiomas, Volume 169, Part One, serves as a comprehensive review of the neurosurgical issues surrounding this extremely common brain tumor. Few procedures in surgery are more immediately formidable than an attack upon a large tumor of this type. In this volume of the Handbook of Clinical Neurology, experts in the field - from basic scientists to skilled neurosurgeons - have provided up-to-date synopses of each topic as it relates to this class of tumor. Surgical and radiation therapy, which remain the mainstays of treatment, are a major focus, but coverage also includes potential molecular avenues for the development of effective medical treatments.

Dr. Michael W. McDermott is Chief Physician Executive at the Miami Neuroscience Institute in Miami, Florida, as well as a Professor of Neurosurgery and Translational Medicine and Chair of the Division of Neuroscience at Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine, Florida International University, Miami, Florida, USA.
