This study compared the incidence and distribution of meningiomas under the 2007 and 2016 WHO criteria and found that adding brain invasion as a diagnostic criterion for Grade 2 meningiomas had minimal impact on the incidence of specific tumor grades. There was strong agreement between the 2007 and 2016 WHO criteria.
Background In 2016 brain invasion was added as a standalone diagnostic criterion for Grade 2 meningiomas in the WHO Classification of Brain Tumors. The aim of this study was to compare the incidence and distribution of meningiomas, and agreement, between the 2007 and 2016 WHO criteria. Methods All cases of intracranial meningiomas diagnosed between 2007 and 2020 at a tertiary care academic hospital were identified. The incidence of each meningioma grade in the WHO 2007 and WHO 2016 cohorts were compared. Additionally, each case in the 2007 cohort was re-graded according to the WHO 2016 criteria to determine the intra-class correlation (ICC) between criteria. Results Of 814 cases, 532 (65.4%) were in the 2007 WHO cohort and 282 (34.6%) were in the 2016 WHO cohort. There were no differences in the distribution of meningioma grades between cohorts (P = .11). Incidence rates were: 75.0% vs. 75.2% for Grade 1, 22.7% vs. 24.5% for Grade 2, and 2.3% vs. 0.4% for Grade 3, for the 2007 and 2016 cohorts, respectively. Upon re-grading, 21 cases (3.9%) were changed. ICC between original and revised grade was 0.92 (95% CI: 0.91-0.93). Amongst Grade 2 meningiomas with brain invasion, 75.8% had three or more atypical histologic features or an elevated mitotic index. Conclusions Including brain invasion as a standalone diagnostic criterion for Grade 2 meningiomas had minimal impact on the incidence of specific meningioma grade tumors. There is strong agreement between the 2007 and 2016 WHO criteria, likely due to cosegregation of grade elevating features.
