Acoustic Neuroma: Treatment or Observation? [PDF]
Should a newly diagnosed schwannoma of the vestibular nerve be observed, surgically removed, or irradiated? This question and others about this type of tumor, also known as acoustic neuroma, were of interest to the more than 600 participants at the European Skull Base Congress, which took place in Rotterdam in April 2009.
