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 ...

A negative high-quality, high-resolution, contrast-enhanced MRI scan is excellent evidence that a patient does not have an AN. Most nerve sheath tumors have a characteristic appearance, and when a tumor is detected there is seldom any doubt as to the identity of the lesion.

Abstract The acquistion and application of new techniques in diagnostic screening have changed the approach to patients with suspected acoustic neuroma. In this paper, we review the extensive recent literature on acoustic tumors and present a critical analysis of the various diagnostic investigations.

When is an acoustic neuroma not an acoustic neuroma? Pitfalls for radiosurgeons
Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, 2015AbstractIntroductionBecause acoustic neuroma (AN), also termed vestibular schwannoma, constitutes by far the commonest intracranial schwannoma and cerebello‐pontine angle (CPA) tumour, there is a risk of overlooking rarer alternative diagnoses with similar clinical and/or radiological features.

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.

British Journal of Neurosurgery, 1997
A retrospective survey is presented of the case records of 138 patients who had undergone operative treatment for acoustic neuroma. The nature and incidence of ophthalmic features prior to and following surgery is documented. The study covers 12 years in two regional neurosurgical centres, under the care of six different neurosurgeons, one ...

Epidemiology of acoustic neuromas
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1984In Denmark one surgical team, during the last 7 years, has performed about 80 per cent of all acoustic neuroma surgery. Because of this centralization, in such a limited population as that of Denmark, we have attempted to make a epidemiological survey of all diagnosed tumours in the period from 1976 to 1983. Systematic and prospective records were made

Management of Acoustic Neuromas
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1991A survey of the management of acoustic neuromas in the broadest sense is given. The epidemiology and pathogenesis is described. The clinical development may take any imaginable course, and even though a slowly progressing unilateral hearing impairment, of the sensorineural type, is the main pattern of presentation, it is stressed that any type of ...

Hypervascular acoustic neuroma
Neurological Research, 1998The 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.

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.
