Question: What size does a temporal meningioma have to be before surgery or radiological treatment is considered.
Answer:11/12/2010
It is more related to the exact position in/around the temporal lobe, whether there are seizures or pressure symptoms, and the possibility of interference with blood circulation, than its actual size.
