Acoustic Schwannoma
Acoustic schwannoma, also known as Vestibular schwannoma, is an uncommon cancerous tumour in the nerve connecting the inner ear with the brain. Acoustic schwannoma can lead to hearing loss and unbearable pain in the ear. It can be treated by surgical removal, radiation and regular monitoring by the neurosurgeon specialist.
Surgical removal
The purpose of surgery is to remove the tumor, preserve the facial nerve to prevent facial paralysis and preserve hearing when possible. Surgery is performed under general anesthesia and involves removing the tumor through the inner ear or through a window in your skull.
