Long-term hearing preservation in vestibular schwannoma.
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the long-term hearing during "wait and scan" management of vestibular schwannomas. SUBJECTS During a 33-year period, from 1976 to 2008, 1,144 patients with vestibular schwannoma were allocated to observation by the wait and scan policy, with annual magnetic resonance imaging and audiologic examination. Two complete pure-tone and speech di...
متن کاملHearing preservation in 2.7 cm vestibular schwannoma.
Hearing preservation is exceedingly difficult in vestibular schwannoma surgery, especially with increasing tumor size. We herein report a case of hearing preservation in a 2.7 cm vestibular schwannoma, where the patient maintained her pre-operative hearing threshold of 55 dB till a year after surgery. Hence, it appears that an attempt at hearing preservation is worth pursuing.
متن کامل[High-grade glioma after stereotactic radiosurgery for vestibular schwannoma].
Stereotactic radiosurgery undoubtedly represents an important therapeutic procedure for various intracranial pathologies, especially tumours, although they are not entirely complication-free. Radiosurgery have been considered a good management strategy for the majority of small-to-medium size vestibular schwannomas. The authors describe a case of high-grade glioma associated with a previous rad...
متن کاملCochlea radiation dose correlates with hearing loss after stereotactic radiosurgery of vestibular schwannoma.
OBJECTIVE For multisession radiosurgery, no published data relate the volume and dose of cochlear irradiation to quantified risk of hearing loss. We conducted a retrospective, dosimetric study to evaluate the relationship between hearing loss after stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and the dose-volume of irradiated cochlea. METHODS Cochlear dose data were retrospectively collected on consecutiv...
متن کاملSurgical salvage of recurrent vestibular schwannoma following prior stereotactic radiosurgery.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To evaluate outcomes of salvage surgery for vestibular schwannoma (VS) that failed primary stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). METHODS Case-control study of 37 patients who underwent surgical resection of sporadic VS following prior SRS at two tertiary academic referral centers between 2003 and 2015. A cohort of nonirradiated control subjects, matched according to tumor siz...
