<br/><br/> Tentorial meningiomas are relatively rare types of  meningiomas. Total surgical resection is the goal in treatment.  Advances in imaging and microsurgical techniques have improved  the surgical outcome. This study included 14 patients with tentorial  meningiomas that were surgically managed. Headache was the  most common clinical manifestation (78.5%), followed by seizures  (21%). Total surgical excision was obtained in 86% of cases.  Complications occurred in 35.7 % of cases. Proper planning for  surgery and the careful choice of the surgical approach are vital for  the best results.
