SSIG grade was assigned primarily on contrast-enhanced coronal MRI, with CT\/MR venography used when available to evaluate sinus patency and collateral venous drainage. Operative variables, resection strategy, and clinicopathological factors were compared across SSIG and Sindou grades, and postoperative complications were compared between low- and high-involvement SSIG groups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>SSIG correlated significantly with Sindou grade (rs = 0.790, \u03c4b = 0.702, both p &lt; 0.001), and among patients with available venous imaging, it also correlated with the venous sinus involvement grade (rs = 0.742, \u03c4b = 0.665, both p &lt; 0.001). With increasing SSIG grade, operative time, intraoperative blood loss, and intraoperative fluid administration increased (p = 0.012, p = 0.008, and p = 0.007, respectively). Compared with the low-involvement group (SSIG grades 1, 2, and 4a), the high-involvement group (SSIG grades 3, 4b, and 5) was less likely to achieve Simpson grade I resection and more likely to adopt Simpson grades II\u2013III strategies (66.7% vs 13.6%, p &lt; 0.001; OR 12.667). Surgery-related complication rates did not differ significantly between groups. The mean follow-up was 13.3 \u00b1 7.9 months, with no radiographic recurrence or progression at last follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>SSIG characterizes parasagittal meningiomas by integrating sinus invasion, venous patency, falcine extension, and parasagittal convexity involvement on preoperative imaging. This surgically oriented framework may help anticipate operative exposure, sinus handling, and resection strategy. Its predictive value for complications and long-term oncological outcomes requires validation in larger cohorts with longer follow-up.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3171\/2026.6.focus26206","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,26]],"date-time":"2026-08-26T00:01:22Z","timestamp":1787702482000},"page":"E7","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Imaging-based surgical stratification of parasagittal meningiomas involving the superior sagittal sinus: a case analysis of 62 patients"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"61","author":[{"given":"Biao","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chao","family":"Du","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mingke","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Junsheng","family":"Chu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nan","family":"Ji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shuyu","family":"Hao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"b1","series-title":"Neurosurg Rev","first-page":"236","article-title":"Meningiomas infiltrating the superior sagittal sinus: surgical considerations of 328 cases","volume":"29","author":"Caroli E","year":"2006","unstructured":"Caroli E, Orlando ER, Mastronardi L, Ferrante L.
