Today Dr. Cerullo, CINN neurosurgeon with over 30 years of experience, will discuss meningiomas. As he explains, meningiomas are primarily benign tumors that grow on the outside of the brain, but still within the skull. The various locations on the brain meningiomas can present are discussed along with some of the more common symptoms. Dr. Cerullo also introduces a brief overview of the treatment options for meningiomas, including surgery, observance, and stereotactic radiosurgery.

  • @HelloDahling1 My mom said only if its connected to your brain. i was luckey cause mine wasent. And i hope your daughter will be ok

  • I had mengioma as a baby when i was born my parents thought it was a mole or a beauty mark 9 months past and it was big. My parents got me surgrey. I have a scar to prove it .

  • Dr. Cerullo removed a benign tumor from my brain in 1996.

  • great channel

  • Thank you so much for this video my boyfriend just got diagnosed with a brain tumor and we are currently waiting 1 week to talk to a neurologist this video sounds a lot like his condition and it is making me feel a lot better, bless you thanks so much!

  • I have a 4month old daughter who has a Meningioma on top of the front right side of her head. I have youtubed this to death along with WebMD'ed out. I have not asked for second or a thierd opinion yet, because I have been told to wait a year. My main concern is that this tumer will affect my child brain development with growth, and may never shrink down. I have heard good things about a product called MMS (Miracle Mineral Solution)and Citric Acid, or Liquid Stablilized Oxygen,

  • and I'm seriously considering using it or asking to have the Meningioma surgically removed. What would be your suggestion?

  • This is my DR. who has done a Gamma knife surgery on my Meningioma brain tumor in 2003. Unfortunately I was one of 15% that it didn't work on & the tumor grew larger in one yrs. time after that Gamma surgery. I had another Gamma Knife surgery in 2005 & it hasn't grown anymore yet & hopefully will not. It is now 2011 & I have MRI's every 3 months to watch it carefully by DR. Cerullo & staff at CINN in Chicago. I'm thankful for DR. Cerullo & CINN.

  • many thanks for this valuable video, he mentioned the incidence of meningioma among men and women, is it equally in both sex or higher among women?

  • Thank you so much for this video!

    its very usefull
