B, Kaplan-Meier curve comparing the PFS of patients with secondary-progressive WHO grade 3 meningioma who underwent GTR (green) versus subtotal resection (STR) (blue). PFS was determined using the RANO criteria on follow-up MR imaging post-initial surgery diagnosing WHO grade 3 meningioma.

    • ↵a Notably, the 6 samples from the secondary-progressive cohort included 1 sample that was WHO grade 1, two samples that were WHO grade 2, and 3 samples that were WHO grade 3 at the time of genetic analysis. Mutations were stratified by clinical significance and categorized as either pathogenic or variants of unknown significance. TERT promoter mutations were not included in this panel.
