Abstract:
:Intracranial meningiomas such as olfactory groove meningioma (OGM) and tuberculum sellae meningioma (TSM) arising at the anterior skull base are amenable to surgical resection. Traditionally, this has been achieved by transcranial approaches (TCAs), however, there has been an evolution in an endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) within recent years. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine if the EEA was superior to the TCA in managing these anterior skull base meningioma based on comparative studies only, and highlight the limitations of the current literature. Searches of seven electronic databases from inception to April 2018 were conducted following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. There were 1479 articles identified for screening. Data were extracted and analyzed using meta-analysis of proportions. A total of 10 comparative studies satisfied criteria for inclusions. Resection by the EEA resulted in significantly less likelihood of worse vision (OR, 0.318; p = 0.039) when compared to TCA in OGM. However, EEA resulted also in significantly greater likelihoods of olfactory loss in OGM (OR, 4.511; p = 0.038) and TSM (OR, 3.075; p = 0.017), and CSF leak (OR, 3.854; p = 0.013) in TSM. In terms of surgical and prognosis outcomes, there was no statistically significant trend in favor of either approach in OGM or TSM. The EEA appears to confer a different postoperative complication profile when compared to the TCA in resecting OGM vs TSM which validates previous case-series comparisons. There is a need for longer-term studies that are larger, prospective, randomized in order to fully elucidate efficacy given slow tendency for progression of meningioma in order to develop a more rigorous approach selection algorithm.
