Spinal meningiomas are relatively rare, benign, intradural, extramedullary tumours, that are typically slow-growing and well-defined. Surgery is always the first line for treating spinal meningiomas. Here, we have discussed the existing literature on spinal meningiomas and the role of surgery in determining the outcomes.
