[Convexity Meningioma, Parasagittal Meningioma, Falx Meningioma].

During surgery for meningioma, basic surgical techniques and strategies required for the removal of the tumor are common, particularly for tumors located superficially, such as convexity, parasagittal, and falx meningiomas. Four basic surgical techniques, including detachment; devascularization; debulking; and dissection should be combined and repeated in appropriate sequence, tailored to the specific conditions of each tumor. This eventually enables the total circumferential dissection of the tumor from the surrounding tissues. It is essential to retract the tumor towards the space created at the tumor center through internal debulking, rather than retracting the normal brain, to avoid damage to the surrounding brain tissue. During surgery for parasagittal meningioma with venous sinus occlusion, it is crucial to preserve the cortical veins that have developed as collateral pathways to prevent venous complications. During surgery for falx meningioma, the selection of a surgical approach including a contralateral approach based on factors such as the development of bridging veins and significant peritumoral brain edema is required. In this article, detailed surgical procedures for convexity meningioma, parasagittal meningioma, and falx meningioma were described focusing on the application of fundamental surgical techniques tailored to each tumor type.
