Evaluation of the necessity of systematic ICU after intracranial meningioma surgery: Towards a risk-based approach. Toulouse University Hospital experience
Background
Intracranial meningiomas are the most common benign central nervous system tumors, often managed with elective surgical resection. While outcomes are generally favorable, postoperative management remains variable, particularly regarding routine Intensive-Care Units (ICU) admission. Given increasing pressure on critical care resources, identifying patients who truly require ICU-level monitoring is essential.
Objective
To evaluate early postoperative complications after meningioma surgery and develop a practical risk-based score to guide ICU admission.
Methods
We performed a retrospective single-center study of 203 intracranial meningioma resections (2020–2022). Patients were included if they had scheduled surgery and at least one night of postoperative ICU monitoring. A composite endpoint defined ICU-relevant complications within 24 h, including seizures, new deficits, delayed awakening, reintubation, transfusion, intra-veinous (IV) antihypertensives, and urgent imaging or reoperation. Twenty-two clinical, radiological, and surgical factors were analyzed.
Results
Postoperative complications requiring ICU-level care occurred in 19.2% of cases, mostly neurological (13.8%). Two-thirds of events occurred upon awakening or in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU). Univariate analysis identified seven significant predictors: intracranial hypertension, falcine location, motor cortex involvement, operative time ≥3 h, blood loss >500 mL, osmotherapy use, and transfusion. A 10-item risk score demonstrated high sensitivity (92.3%) and negative predictive value (95.9%) using a cut-off of 1 or more points. Using this model, in our population, 36.5% of patients could have safely avoided ICU admission.
Conclusion
A risk-based approach to ICU admission after meningioma surgery appears both safe and feasible. Implementation of this score, combined with extended PACU monitoring, could optimize resource use without compromising patient safety. Prospective validation is warranted.
期刊介绍:
Neurochirurgie publishes articles on treatment, teaching and research, neurosurgery training and the professional aspects of our discipline, and also the history and progress of neurosurgery. It focuses on pathologies of the head, spine and central and peripheral nervous systems and their vascularization. All aspects of the specialty are dealt with: trauma, tumor, degenerative disease, infection, vascular pathology, and radiosurgery, and pediatrics. Transversal studies are also welcome: neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, neurology, neuropediatrics, psychiatry, neuropsychology, physical medicine and neurologic rehabilitation, neuro-anesthesia, neurologic intensive care, neuroradiology, functional exploration, neuropathology, neuro-ophthalmology, otoneurology, maxillofacial surgery, neuro-endocrinology and spine surgery. Technical and methodological aspects are also taken onboard: diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, methods for assessing results, epidemiology, surgical, interventional and radiological techniques, simulations and pathophysiological hypotheses, and educational tools. The editorial board may refuse submissions that fail to meet the journal''s aims and scope; such studies will not be peer-reviewed, and the editor in chief will promptly inform the corresponding author, so as not to delay submission to a more suitable journal.
With a view to attracting an international audience of both readers and writers, Neurochirurgie especially welcomes articles in English, and gives priority to original studies. Other kinds of article - reviews, case reports, technical notes and meta-analyses - are equally published.
Every year, a special edition is dedicated to the topic selected by the French Society of Neurosurgery for its annual report.
