Background: The combination of intralabyrinthine schwannoma (ILS) removal and cochlear implantation is the standard of care after surgical resection for audiological rehabilitation. Intracochlear ILS is not only the most frequent tumor in this group...
Preservation of function is an important goal during surgical management of cochleovestibular schwannomas. We here demonstrate the relief of vertigo and the preservation of function of all five vestibular receptors after removal of an intracochlear s...
Background: In most cases, intralabyrinthine schwannoma (ILS) occurs in patients with unilateral hearing deterioration or neurofibromatosis type II (NF II). The pattern of localization of these tumors varies but mostly affects the cochlea. Extirpatio...
Intralabyrinthine schwannomas (ILS) are rare benign tumours arising from the peripheral branches of the cochlear or vestibular nerves in the membranous labyrinth, intracochlear schwannomas being the most frequent ones. When hearing is no longer feasi...
Objectives: Simultaneous removal and cochlear implantation (CI) have been reported in intralabyrinthine and intracochlear schwannoma. A wide range of postoperative hearing outcomes have been reported after CI in these cases. This study evaluated the...
Intralabyrinthine schwannoma (ILS) is a rare benign tumor of the inner ear potentially causing unilateral sensorineural hearing loss and vertigo. This study evaluated the outcome of one surgical session comprising microsurgical ILS resection and coch...
