According to our finding, the AIMSS score is a valid tool to estimate the risk of rapid growth of asymptomatic meningiomas. It is especially useful distinguishing between low- and intermediate-risk meningiomas. This feature would allow physicians to adjust the periodicity of radiological and clinical controls. Adding more known risk factors of rapid growth to the score might improve its predictive capabilities with the high-risk group.
