Quality indicators and early adverse in surgery for atypical meningiomas: A 16-year single centre study and systematic review of the literature.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Atypical meningiomas represent approximately 20% of all intracranial meningiomas and are characterized by distinct histopathological criteria and an increased risk of postoperative recurrence. Recently, quality indicators have been introduced to monitor quality of the delivered care.

Research question

Which quality indicators/outcome measures are being applied in patients being operated for atypical meningiomas? What are risk factors associated with poor outcome? How is the surgical outcome and which quality indicators are reported in the literature?

Material and methods

The primary outcomes of interest were 30-days readmission-, 30-day reoperation-, 30-day mortality-, 30-day nosocomial infection- and the 30-day surgical site infection (SSI) rate, CSF-lea
