Facial function in hearing preservation acoustic neuroma surgery.
OBJECTIVE To determine if facial function is worse after hearing preservation acoustic neuroma surgery (retrosigmoid and middle fossa) than in translabyrinthine surgery. DESIGN Retrospective medical record review. SETTING Private neuro-otology subspecialty practice of patients operated on in a tertiary care hospital. PATIENTS This study evaluated 315 consecutive acoustic neuroma surgical ...
متن کامل[Preservation of hearing in surgery of acoustic neuroma].
Between 1981 and 1984, 44 patients underwent acoustic neuroma removal by a posterior cranial fossa approach in an attempt to preserve hearing. 7 tumors were small (less than 20 mm), 28 were medium (20 to 40 mm) and 9 large (greater than 40 mm). Of these 44 patients, 4 had normal hearing preoperatively, 15 had serviceable hearing, 10 poor hearing and 15 no hearing. Postoperative hearing was pres...
متن کاملHearing preservation surgery in acoustic neuroma: long-term results
Long-term hearing was examined in 200 patients operated on during 1976-2000 with removal of acoustic neuroma with a retrosigmoid approach and hearing preservation technique. Ninety-four cases preserved hearing, and 91 cases were followed-up for at least 6 years (range 6 to 21 years). Hearing was measured with the PTA 0.5 KHz to 4 KHz and the SDS, and followed the guidelines of the American Acad...
متن کاملElectrophysiological monitoring during acoustic neuroma and other posterior fossa surgery.
Techniques used to monitor the function of the seventh and eighth cranial nerves during acoustic neuroma and other posterior fossa surgery are reviewed. The auditory brainstem response (ABR), electrocochleogram (ECochG) and direct recording from the auditory nerve (CNAP) were compared. The best technique is the ECochG, although in many cases, the CNAP should be used as a back-up technique. The ...
متن کاملOcular complications of acoustic neuroma surgery.
AIM To analyse the risk factors involved in the development of ocular complications after acoustic neuroma resection, in particular corneal complications and visual loss, and to identify measures that may reduce these. METHODS 62 patients who underwent surgery for acoustic neuroma had a standardised ophthalmic examination and retrospective case note review. RESULTS At final review (mean 37....
