Scope note: SCHWANNOMA benigno del octavo par craneal (NERVIO VESTIBULOCOCLEAR), la mayoría de las veces en la rama vestibular (NERVIO VESTIBULAR), en la quinta o sexta década de la vida. Las manifestaciones clínicas son HIPOACUSIA, CEFALEA, VÉRTIGO, ACÚFENOS y DOLOR FACIAL. Los neurinomas acusticos bilaterales se asocian a NEUROFIBROMATOSIS TIPO 2.

Scope note: A benign SCHWANNOMA of the eighth cranial nerve (VESTIBULOCOCHLEAR NERVE), mostly arising from the vestibular branch (VESTIBULAR NERVE) during the fifth or sixth decade of life. Clinical manifestations include HEARING LOSS; HEADACHE; VERTIGO; TINNITUS; and FACIAL PAIN. Bilateral acoustic neuromas are associated with NEUROFIBROMATOSIS 2. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p673)
