Dedicated to the Diagnosis & Treatment of Acoustic Neuroma

Acoustic Neuroma represents 6% to 10% of all primary brain tumors

Acoustic Neuroma, also known as Vestibular Schwannoma, is a slow-growing non malignant tumor of the vestibulocochlear nerve (eighth cranial nerve) that connects the ear to the brain. The vestibulocochlear nerve is responsible for hearing and balance function. Acoustic Neuroma is a fibrous tumor that arises from the Schwann cells that surround these nerves. Schwann cells are cells that normally wrap around and support nerve fibers. Overproduction of these cells produces the Acoustic Neuroma tumors. These tumors are located deep in the skull near centers of the brain that control vital functions. As the tumors grow, they can press against these sensitive structures, affecting neurological function and even becoming life threatening. Acoustic Neuroma represents 6% to 10% of all primary brain tumors with an annual incidence of one out of every 100,000 people and 2,500-3,000 new cases in the United States every year.
