please help with 10 yr. post meningioma removal mri report
Hi. My MRI reads: ... Patient is status post frontotemporal craniotomy for removal of meningioma. T2 hyperintensity is demonstrated in the left frontal lobe in the vicinity of the surgical site suggesting encephalomalacia. Minimal areas of periventricular T2 hyperintensity are noted... Impression: Postsurgical changes status post removal of left frontal meningioma with no evidence for recurrence.
So I get that there is no recurrence, happy day, but what is the rest about? I'm in my 40s. is any sort of treatment available for this type of damage? Thank you!

Hi there!
The rest are just typical mild inflammatory changes observed after a surgical resection and should not be anything to worry about.
Hope this is helpful.
