Meningioma is a type of tumor that arises in the meninges, which are the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. Meningiomas are typically slow-growing and may not cause symptoms for many years. Treatment for meningioma may depend on the size, location, and growth rate of the tumor, as well as the individual's overall health and wellbeing. Treatment options may include surgery, radiation therapy, or observation.
