Hearing preservation and facial nerve outcomes in vestibular schwannoma surgery: total removal using the retrosigmoid approach
Background: The present study aims to report the results and the prognostic and technical factors for hearing preservation during removal of vestibular schwannoma by a retrosigmoid approach. Methods: this was a retrospective study conducting on the 286 vestibular showannomas removal surgeries using retrosigmoid approach during October 2007 to 2011.Preoperative and postoperative clinical, audiom...
متن کاملLong-Term Hearing Outcome After Retrosigmoid Removal of Vestibular Schwannoma
Although many investigators have reported the hearing function in the immediate postoperative period in patients with vestibular schwannoma (VS), little is known about the long-term outcomes of the postoperative hearing. The aim of this study was to analyze the long-term hearing outcomes at a mean follow-up of 5 years in patients with unilateral VS treated via the retrosigmoid approach. Twenty-...
متن کاملLong-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 کاملDetermining benchmarks in hearing preservation surgery for vestibular schwannoma.
Objectives The objectives of this study were to determine minimal benchmarks of success in vestibular schwannoma hearing preservation surgery, wherein the likelihood of having preserved hearing in a single patient is at least as likely as having created a poor facial nerve outcome for a single patient. Design This is a statistical analysis of published literature. Setting Academic Tertiary Medi...
