Hearing loss owing to intralabyrinthine schwannoma responsive to intratympanic steroid treatment.

V estibular schwannoma is a benign tumour that originates from the distal parts of the vestibular or cochlear nerve. The vestibule is an unusual location for acoustic neuromas. The primary symptoms of such tumours are unilateral hearing loss, tinnitus, and vertigo. In this article, we report a patient with vestibular schwannoma who presented with the typical complaints and audiologic findings of Meniere disease. On magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the patient was found to have a 5 3 4 mm mass that was slightly hyperintense on T1weighted MRI and showed contrast enhancement (Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 3). The associated hearing loss responded to intratympanic steroid therapy.
