Meningiomas are affected by embolization depending on their vascularization. Preoperative embolization should be done in very large tumors
and tumors showing prominent vascularization. Serious complications are very rare, although cranial nerve damage, damage to adjacent
tissues with unintended tissue embolisation, or stroke may be seen.
