Expression of matrix metalloproteinases (mmp-2) in prognostication of meningioma

Background: Meningioma is the most common intracranial tumour in adults which is 20% of all primary intracranial tumours. Besides extent of tumour surgical resection and WHO grading, angiogenesis is also one of the prognostic factors, which is influenced by MMP-2. Our study aimed to determine the...

Methodology: A cross sectional study was conducted on 99 samples of meningioma of different grades diagnosed from January 2008 until December 2017.

This study consists of 85 cases of low-grade meningioma (Grade I) and 14 cases of high-grade meningioma (11 = Grade II, 3 = Grade III). The most common subtypes are meningothelial, transitional and fibroblastic. Sixty two out of 85 cases of low-grade and 10 out of 14 cases of high-grade shows high MMP- 2 expression, however they were not significant, p >0.950.

However, this is not significant. Conclusion: MMP-2 were expressed in all low- and high-grade meningiomas with varying intensity. Majority of cases exhibit low quantity of angiogenesis and among these cases, mostly expressed high MMP-2. However, these findings were not significant.
