The data was collected, retrieved, tabulated, summarized and compared statistically by frequency distribution and percentage Proportion. Chi-square (X2) test was applied to evaluate the significant (p-value) ratio of difference statistically Result: - In the present study the most common variant of meningioma was meningothelial meningioma and most common age group was 41- 50 year. According to WHO grading frequency of meningioma was; Grade I meningioma 94.89% while grade II 1.70% and grade III were 3.41% in our study. Male to female ratio was 47:53%. Conclusion: - In our study of 117 cases, meningothelial meningioma was the most common histomorphological variant of meningioma while according to WHO grading of meningiomas, 94.89% were belongs to grade I meningioma and rest grade II (atypical) 1.70% and grade III (anaplastic) meningiomas contributed 3.41%
