Clinical predictors of facial nerve outcome after translabyrinthine resection of acoustic neuromas.
PURPOSE The translabyrinthine approach to acoustic neuroma resection offers excellent exposure for facial nerve dissection with 95% preservation of anatomic continuity. Acceptable outcome in facial asymptomatic patients is reported at 64-90%, but transient postoperative deterioration often occurs. The objective of this study was to identify preoperative clinical presentation and intraoperative ...

متن کاملAcoustic Neuromas.
Patients with acoustic neuromas have several treatment options that include observation, surgical resection, stereotactic radiosurgery, and fractionated radiotherapy. Resection is indicated for patients with larger tumors that have caused major neurologic deficits from brain compression. Surgeons perform stereotactic radiosurgery as the main alternative to acoustic tumor resection with the goal...
متن کاملInfluencing Factors Analysis of Facial Nerve Function after the Microsurgical Resection of Acoustic Neuroma
OBJECTIVE To explore and analyze the influencing factors of facial nerve function retainment after microsurgery resection of acoustic neurinoma. METHODS Retrospective analysis of our hospital 105 acoustic neuroma cases from October, 2006 to January 2012, in the group all patients were treated with suboccipital sigmoid sinus approach to acoustic neuroma microsurgery resection. We adopted resea...
متن کاملSurgical management of large acoustic neuromas: a review.
Acoutic neuromas operated at UMMC from 2001 to 2006 were retrospectively reviewed. There were a total of 27 cases. All tumors were large, measuring more than 2 cm. Hearing loss was the most common presenting symptom (63%), followed by headache (52%), dysequilibrium (30%), facial numbness (30%), tinnitus (26%) and gait disturbances (15%). Eleven (41%) of patients had hydrocephalus at the time of...
