Hearing loss is a common side effect of many tumor treatments. However, hearing loss can also occur as a direct result of certain tumors of the nervous system, the most common of which are the vestibular schwannomas (VS). These tumors arise from Schwann cells of the vestibulocochlear nerve and their main cause is the loss of function of NF2, with 95 % of cases being sporadic and 5 % being part of the rare neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2)-related Schwannomatosis. Genetic variations in NF2 do not fully explain the clinical heterogeneity of VS, and interactions between Schwann cells and their microenvironment appear to be critical for tumor development. Preclinical in vitro and in vivo models of VS are needed to develop prognostic biomarkers and targeted therapies. In addition to VS, other tumors can affect hearing. Meningiomas and other masses in the cerebellopontine angle can compress the vestibulocochlear nerve due to their anatomic proximity. Gliomas can disrupt several neurological functions, including hearing; in fact, glioblastoma multiforme, the most aggressive subtype, may exhibit early symptoms of auditory alterations. Besides, treatments for high-grade tumors, including chemotherapy or radiotherapy, as well as incomplete resections, can induce long-term auditory dysfunction. Because hearing loss can have an irreversible and dramatic impact on quality of life, it should be considered in the clinical management plan of patients with tumors, and monitored throughout the course of the disease.
