Convexity meningioma surgery risks
Based on the attached MRI reports and the current symptoms, multiple neuro surgeons strongly recommended an immediate surgical removal of the right frontal convexity meningioma. The patient, who is now 64,  has a history of a mild stroke in the August of 2023 and has been on blood thinners (like aspirin) since then. I would appreciate your opinions regarding the potential risks of the surgery.  We are worried!
