Acoustic Neuroma :

Acoustic neuroma is a benign tumor that grows on the vestibulocochlear nerve that passes from the inner ear to the brain. Most of the acoustic neuromas(95%) affect only one ear and although the growth is non-cancerous if it increases in size it might compress on the surrounding tissues in the brain(cranial nerves and brainstem) which may lead to various symptoms. It can be due to genetic mutations (e.g., neurofibromatosis type 2), exposure to radiation and/or meningiomas (tumors in the lining of the brain and spinal cord).

Signs and symptoms of acoustic neuroma include hearing loss or tinnitus /ringing sensation in the ear, balance problems or vertigo, facial numbness or weakness, headaches, dizziness or loss of coordination, speech difficulties etc.Complications include hearing loss or deafness, facial paralysis or weakness, hydrocephalus (fluid accumulation in the brain), brainstem compression etc.Diagnosis is made by the examination of the above symptoms, MRI or CT scans. Management is by surgery( suboccipital craniotomy, translabyrinthine approach), radiation therapy and rehabilitation and other supportive care.
