Upfront radiation for small, nongrowing vestibular schwannomas: a call for caution.
The management of small vestibular schwannomas (VS) with serviceable hearing remains controversial. While stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) achieves high tumor control rates, its routine use for nongrowing, asymptomatic tumors may represent o…

A nomogram to predict long-term facial nerve function after vestibular schwannoma resection: a contemporary multi-institutional study.
[OBJECTIVE] The objective of this study was to develop a nomogram to predict long-term facial nerve (FN) function after vestibular schwannoma (VS) resection. [METHODS] A retrospective cohort study of two tertiary academic skull base referr…

Defining clinically significant tumor size in vestibular schwannoma to inform timing of microsurgery during wait-and-scan management: moving beyond minimum detectable growth.
[OBJECTIVE] Detection of vestibular schwannoma (VS) growth during observation leads to definitive treatment at most centers globally. Although ≥ 2 mm represents an established benchmark of tumor growth on serial MRI studies, 2 mm of linear …

Hearing Preservation Microsurgery in Vestibular Schwannomas: Worth Attempting in "Larger" Tumors?
[OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS] To review hearing preservation after microsurgical resection of sporadic vestibular schwannomas according to tumor size. [STUDY DESIGN] Retrospective cohort. [METHODS] Baseline, intraoperative, and postoperative pa…

Predicting Extent of Microsurgical Resection of Sporadic Vestibular Schwannoma.
[OBJECTIVE] Develop a predictive model for incomplete microsurgical resection of sporadic vestibular schwannoma (VS). [STUDY DESIGN] Historical cohort. [SETTING] Tertiary referral center. [PATIENTS] Patients with sporadic VS. [INTERVENT…

Fluorescein-Assisted Microsurgical Resection of Vestibular Schwannoma: A Prospective Feasibility Study.
[OBJECTIVE] To evaluate the optimal dose and timing of administration of sodium fluorescein (SF) for selective fluorescence of sporadic vestibular schwannoma (VS) during microsurgery with the YELLOW 560-nm microscope filter (YE560) and to c…

Lifetime Cost and Quality-Adjusted Life-Years Across Management Options for Small- and Medium-Sized Sporadic Vestibular Schwannoma.
[OBJECTIVE] Despite the growing emphasis on healthcare costs, limited data address this aspect of care within the vestibular schwannoma (VS) literature. We sought to determine which strategy confers the lowest lifetime cost and greatest qua…

Degree of preoperative hearing loss predicts time to early mobilization following vestibular schwannoma microsurgery.
[OBJECTIVE] To test the hypothesis that severe to profound preoperative hearing loss predicts less acute postoperative vestibulopathy following microsurgical removal of vestibular schwannoma (VS) allowing for earlier postoperative mobilizat…

Regional variation in vestibular schwannoma management and patient support group participation across the United States.
[PURPOSE] The Acoustic Neuroma Association (ANA) represents the largest existing patient support organization for those diagnosed with vestibular schwannoma (VS) in the United States. Yet, the degree to which the ANA is actually utilized ac…
