Acoustic Neuroma

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1990
Acoustic neuromas are benign schwannomas that arise from the vestibular portion of the eighth cranial nerve. Small tumors confined to the internal auditory canal may be removed via an extradural subtemporal approach. Tumors that involve the cerebellopontine angle require posterior fossa craniotomy utilizing either the suboccipital or translabyrinthine ...

Acoustic neuromas

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2002
Patients with acoustic neuromas have several treatment options that include observation, surgical resection, stereotactic radiosurgery, and fractionated radiotherapy. Resection is indicated for patients with larger tumors that have caused major neurologic deficits from brain compression.

Acoustic neuroma

Medical Journal of Australia, 1991
To present the clinical features, the diagnostic methods, and the techniques and results of surgical removal of acoustic neuromas, and to illustrate the lowered mortality and morbidity derived from improved imaging and the improved surgical results from a teamwork approach.We review our consecutive series of 106 patients undergoing 119 operations for ...

Cystic acoustic neuroma

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2005
To define the clinical characteristics of cystic acoustic neuroma, we retrospectively analyzed 22 patients with cystic acoustic neuroma and reviewed the literature with regard to clinical manifestation, imaging features, diagnosis, surgical procedures and prognosis.

Calcified Acoustic Neuroma

Southern Medical Journal, 1989
As our case indicates, it should be kept in mind that calcification, though unusual, does occur in acoustic neuromas. The statistical tendency of acoustic neuroma and meningioma to have different signal characteristics on magnetic resonance imaging may make MRI useful in increasing specificity in preoperative diagnosis.

Bilateral Acoustic Neuromas

Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1972
A case is presented of a 17-year-old female with bilateral acoustic neuromas not associated with multiple neurofibromatosis. The progressive nature of the hearing loss, retrocochlear audiometric test results as well as physical symptoms suggested bilateral acoustic neuromas. Both neuromas were removed with resulting total hearing loss.

Bilateral acoustic neuromas

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1993
This article reviews 12 patients with bilateral acoustic neuromas. The sex incidence was equal and the mean age at diagnosis was 26.2 years. The family history was positive in nine of the patients. Five patients have had incomplete surgical removal of acoustic neuromas on both sides.

Hypervascular acoustic neuroma

Neurological Research, 1998
The authors present a patient with a large acoustic neuroma that exhibited an unusual vascular architecture. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated multiple flow voids in and around the mass. At surgery, intra- and extratumoral vascularity was arterialized due to luxurious shunting.
