Cochlea-sparing acoustic neuroma treatment with 4π radiation therapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
PurposeThis study investigates whether 4π noncoplanar radiation therapy can spare the cochleae and consequently potentially improve hearing preservation in patients with acoustic neuroma who are treated with radiation therapy.Methods and ...

What intervention is best practice for vestibular schwannomas? A systematic review of controlled studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Objective: Largely, watchful waiting is the initial policy for patients with small-sized or medium-sized vestibular schwannoma, because of slow growth and relatively minor complaints, that do not improve by an intervention. If intervention (microsurgery,

Current Status of Research on Losartan in Tumour Therapy

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Losartan, a widely prescribed antihypertensive agent, has attracted growing interest as a potential adjuvant in cancer therapy due to its affordability, established safety profile and pleiotropic effects. Emerging preclinical evidence demonstrates that losartan can effectively modulate the tumour microenvironment (TME) by inhibiting ...

Vestibular schwannoma presenting as sudden hearing loss [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The sudden Hearing Loss (SHL) is a symptom caused by more than 60 different diseases, including Vestibular Schwannoma (VS). Shaia & Sheehy (1976) presented a study with 1,220 cases of SHL reporting 1% incidence of VS.

From Sound to Silence: Cerebellar Abscesses and Herniation Due to Cochlear Implant Infection With Escherichia coli and Bacteroides fragilis

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Cochlear implantation (CI) is a safe and well‐established intervention for sensorineural hearing loss, with a low incidence of severe postoperative infections. We present the first reported case of cerebellar abscess and herniation due to CI infection. This unique case involves a 57‐year‐old man with recurrent cochlear implant infections, necessitating

Schwannoma vestibular

open access: yesJBNC - JORNAL BRASILEIRO DE NEUROCIRURGIA, 2017
 O schwannoma vestibular é o tumor mais frequente do ângulo ponto-cerebelar, representando 8-10% de todos os tumores intracranianos. A sintomatologia associada a este tumor tem sido amplamente estudada desde que Cushing, em 1917, descreveu sua primeira casuística de pacientes com schwannoma vestibular.

Comparative analysis of plan quality between two SRS systems for stereotactic irradiation in treating Vestibular Schwannoma

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare plan quality for vestibular schwannoma (VS) between CyberKnife (CK) and ZAP‐X. Methods Thirty VS cases treated with CK were re‐planned on CK and newly planned on ZAP‐X. Both plans ensured 98% target coverage.

Optimizing Cochlear Implant Position for Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Vestibular Schwannoma

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 10, Issue 6, December 2025.
We retrospectively reviewed nine CI recipients treated for vestibular schwannoma, comparing conventional versus alternative (more vertical, farther) receiver/magnet placement, and related postoperative inner ear/IAC visibility on MRI to 3D‐CT measurements of magnet‐to‐EAC/IAC distances and the nasion–EAC–magnet angle.
