Right parietal meningioma?

My father has been diagnosed yesterday a Right parietal meningioma.
" Rechtshemisphärisch , post- central, in the area of ​​the parietal lobe superior evidence of ovular , everywhere smooth bounded homogeneous mass directly adjacent to the skull . Expansion is approximately 18x11mm . No evidence of circumscribed osteodestructive in the inner table . No significant perifocal Ödemsaum . The finding is most consistent with a Menningeom . Aeration control rights of the paranasal sinuses and mastoid air cells of the . No evidence of fresh bony lesion.

Urgent va right parietal meningioma post centrally located in the area of ​​the superior parietal lobe , most likely consistent with a meningioma ."

My question is usual: WHAT are the chances to fully recover? Is it possible to continue with normal life after surgery. We are waiting for results from Bosnian doctos, as the diagnose is made in Germany.


Thank you,
AT

Hi!
I am sorry to hear about your father’s medical problems.  Well, a localized meningioma just adjacent to the inner table of skull has a better prognosis than a deep seated one. However, the prognosis also depends on how aggressive the menigioma is (genetic karyotype—though usually benign some meningiomas are malignant), how well it can be excised and the area of the brain
likely to be damaged. Please consult your father’s doctor regarding this. Good Luck! Take care!

The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history. Hence this reply to your post should only be considered as a guiding line and you must consult your doctor at the earliest for your medical problem.
