Lutéran, Lotényl and risk of meningioma: "Women should not panic"

Extract from the article:

Do not panic in view of the scarcity of meningiomas

Dr. Geoffroy Robin, gynecologist and chairman of the CNGOF medical gynecology commission, immediately affirms this, "women under Lutéran or Lotényl should not panic in view of the rarity of meningiomas". And to continue: “Admittedly, these figures may seem high and anxiety -provoking, but they must be weighted due to the very low annual incidence of meningiomas in the general population: approximately 8 to 10 cases/100,000 people/year or 0.008 to 0.01% of the general/year population!” To fully understand, the doctor explains that a figure, very small, multiplied by a high figure, remains very small. “Before demonizing a therapeutic class, it is necessary to put into perspective, it is rather a new side effect which remains in very rare absolute value."
