Our new @uscbtc study published in the Journal of Neuro-Oncology @JNeurooncol In a national dataset of >3.3M patients, we found: • BSO alone → lower lifetime risk of meningioma • HRT → increased risk • BSO + HRT → highest risk, particularly in women with hormone-driven conditions (fibroids, endometriosis, gynecologic malignancy) Interestingly, patients who developed meningiomas after BSO + HRT were less likely to undergo surgical resection, suggesting these tumors may be more indolent. Important implications for hormonal exposure, risk stratification, and counseling after surgical menopause. Great work by Will Zeng + our USC team.
