Background: Elderly patients with vestibular schwannoma (VS) are commonly observed.
Object: Retrospective analysis of 25 patients aging ≥ 70 operated on in our neurosurgical department for unilateral VS. The purpose of our study is to propose an algorithm for the treatment of VS in elderly patients.
Methods: American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) Grade I-II patients and Grade III with life-threatening tumors were enrolled. Karnofsky Performance Status Scale (KPS) was used for evalutation of the quality of life. The House-Brackmann (HB) scale for facial nerve (FN) outcome was used. Tumor size was categorized according to Koos' classification. A retrosigmoid approach was used in all cases, except one in which a translabyrinthine approach was performed. Surgical removal graduation: total (GTR), near total (NTR > 95%), subtotal (STR > 90%). The clinical and radiological follow-up period was set first at six months and then at one year after surgery. FN results evaluation was performed at one year, categorized according to House-Brackmann grades I-VI.
Results: Mean age: 74,4 years (70-83); 28% ASA I, 56% ASA II, 16% ASA III. Mean tumor size: 2,7 cm (1,5-4,2 cm).
Gtr/ntr: 68%, STR 32%. Mortality was zero. At last follow-up (one year after surgery) FN results were: HBI 81%, HBII 9.5%, HBIII 9.5%; HB IV 0%. Only 4 patients had preoperative HB IV, of whom one improved from HB IV to HB III. Transient complications occurred only in large VS. Re-growth of residue after STR was observed in 3 cases, treated with SRS in 2 cases and observed in 1.
Conclusions: An algorithm of treatment of vestibular schwannoma in the elderly is proposed. In particular, in patients in general good conditions, age does not appear to be a major contraindication for microsurgery of VS. FN results at last follow-up are satisfactory and the complication rates are acceptable.

Paragangliomas are slow-growing, extra-adrenal neuroendocrine tumors with rare intracranial presentation. Although benign, they can be locally aggressive tumors causing bone destruction and compression related symptoms. We report the case of a 19 years old, normotensive female who presented with headache and vertigo for the past six months.

: Vestibular schwannomas (VSs), also called acoustic neuromas, are benign tumors affecting the vestibulocochlear nerve, often leading to hearing loss and balance issues. This condition is particularly challenging in patients with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2), where VSs tend to develop bilaterally. Conventional treatments, such as surgery and radiotherapy, although effective, carry risks like hearing loss and nerve damage.

Introduction: To evaluate the effect of fractionation and prognostic factors on local control (LC) in the treatment of vestibular schwannoma (VS).
Methods: The medical records of 104 patients with vestibular schwannoma who were treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) from January 2015 to September 2023 were retrospectively collected. SRS was performed using Cyberknife robotic lineer accelerator.

Objective: Excessively prescribed opioids promote chronic drug abuse and worsen a highly prevalent public health problem in the era of the opioid epidemic. This study aimed to (a) determine general analgesic prescription patterns after surgery for vestibular schwannoma (VS) with a focus on opioid prescription rates, (b) identify risk factors for receiving narcotics for postoperative pain management, and (c) highlight the feasibility of opioid-free analgesic treatment strategies.
Study Design: Retrospective chart review.
