Meningioma mainly occurs in the arachnoid endothelial cells, so it can occur in any part of the brain except the brain parenchyma. How to treat orbital lesions of sphenoid meningioma? Let's talk about it

How to treat orbital lesions of sphenoid meningioma?

First of all, surgery should be performed to remove the sphenoid ridge meningioma, and the orbital bone hyperplasia should be removed at the same time; If the optic canal is compressed, the bone of the optic canal wall should be removed and the optic nerve should be decompressed to restore vision;

Stereotactic radiosurgery: including gamma knife, X-ray knife and particle knife. It is suitable for postoperative residual or recurrent tumors, tumors in the skull base and cavernous sinus, and the maximum diameter of tumor is less than 3 cm. The 4-year tumor control rate was 89%. The advantages of this method are safety and no operation risk, but the long-term effect remains to be observed.

Embolization therapy: including physical embolization and chemical embolization, the former blocking the tumor feeding artery and promoting thrombosis, the latter acting on the vascular wall endothelial cells, inducing thrombosis, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the blood supply of meningioma. Both methods were used as preoperative adjuvant therapy, and were limited to meningiomas mainly supplied by external carotid artery.

matters needing attention

The key to the prevention of meningioma is to pay attention to diet hygiene and avoid carcinogens such as benzopyrene and nitrosamine entering the body. Pay attention to personal hygiene, exercise, enhance resistance, prevent virus infection. Avoid brain trauma, and cure it in time. People who have already suffered from intracranial tumors should not give birth again. In daily life, you should eat more yellow green vegetables and fruits, such as carrots, pumpkins, tomatoes, lettuce, cabbage, spinach, jujube, bananas, apples, mangoes, etc.
