[Association of the degree of differentiation and the mitotic activity of intracranial meningiomas with age and gender].
Intensive work is under way to detect the direct and indirect signs that can be used to predict the behavior of a tumor process with greater or lesser assurance. The authors have studied different aspects of the clinical course and recurrence of intracranial meningiomas, investigated the morphological features of their individual forms, their mitotic activity and, on this basis, considered the degree of differentiation and prediction of a recurrence. The findings should be the basis for searching for parallels between morphological, demographic, and clinical characteristics. Such a comprehensive study and search for mutually determining links between the findings will shed light upon a diversity of problems that are of theoretical and practical value.
