Long term phonatory function following acoustic neuroma surgery: a cohort study.

Acoustic neuroma (AN) is a well-recognized cause of neurological morbidity, peripheral facial paralysis being one of the most prevalent. Phonatory dysfunction in the late post-operative term has not been properly addressed so far. The objective of this study is to describe the outcomes of phonatory function on the long-term follow-up of AN surgery and identify its prognostic factors.

Vestibular schwannoma: predictive factors of long-term postoperative neurological outcome.

Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a slow-growing, benign tumor that is usually diagnosed when symptoms develop. Surgical management aims to reduce long-term sequelae (LTS) associated with late diagnosis. Identify predictive factors of LTS after VS surgery and clinical outcome measured by modified Rankin scale (mRS).
