Our series of low-dose radiation-induced meningiomas represents one of the largest of its kind in the English literature. The patients did not differ substantially in sex ratio, tumor localization, multiplicity and histological features from the previously reported postradiation meningioma patients, except for the significantly lower tumor recurrence rate. It would seem that over the next years we will be further witnessing the deleterious effects of low-dose radiation administered in childhood.
