OBJECTIVE
Nausea and dizziness are very discomforting for patients after vestibular schwannoma surgery and they impair recovery.
METHODS
To identify preoperative symptoms and conditions that increase the risk of development of nausea after vestibular schwannoma surgery, a multivariate analysis was
We report a patient with a posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) aneurysm and an incidental facial nerve schwannoma at the cerebellopontine angle (CPA). A 46-year-old woman presented with the sudden onset of a severe headache, nausea, and vomiting. She had no other abnormal neurological
Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH) is the most common cause of euvolemic hypo-osmotic hyponatremia. There are several etiologies of SIADH including neuroendocrine tumor, pulmonary disease, infection, trauma, and medications. Here, we report a case of SIADH associated
The authors describe an acute facial and acoustic neuropathy following gamma knife surgery (GKS) for vestibular schwannoma (VS). This 39-year-old woman presenting with tinnitus underwent GKS for a small right-sided intracanalicular VS, receiving a maximal dose of 26 Gy and a tumor margin dose of 13

Hemorrhagic vestibular schwannomas are rare entities, with only a few case reports in the literature during the last 25 years. The authors review the literature on vestibular schwannoma hemorrhage and the presenting symptoms of this entity, which include headache, nausea, vomiting, sudden cranial
A case of right trigeminal neurinoma extending from the cavernous sinus to the cerebellopontine angle in a 48-year-old male is reported. The patient first noticed right facial numbness in June 1993. Six months later, he experienced headaches with occasional nausea, diplopia, ataxic gait, tinnitus
Schwannomas are benign neurogenic tumors that arise from Schwann cells that line the sheaths of peripheral nerves. Schwannomas are commonly located in the soft tissues of the head and neck, extremities, mediastinum, retroperitoneum, and pelvis, but they are very rare in the mesentery. A 56-y-old man
OBJECTIVE
The majority of tumors of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) are benign. We report the case of a primary malignant melanoma of the CPA that mimicked a vestibular schwannoma (acoustic neuroma). We discuss the differential diagnosis and prognosis of melanotic lesions at this
A 49-year-old male, who had been suffering from left hearing disturbance before 5 years, suddenly developed severe headache, nausea and vomiting on January 3, 1979. Both plain and enhanced CT performed on the day of admission showed a nearly round high density area at the left cerebello-pontine
A 49-year-old man who had been suffering from disturbance of hearing for 5 years suddenly developed severe headache, nausea, and vomiting. Computed tomography (CT) scans both with and without contrast medium enhancement, performed on the day of admission, showed a nearly round high-density area in
A 52-year-old woman had a history of left hearing loss for 5 years. An acoustic neurinoma with 3.2 cm in diameter was diagnosed and treated with gamma-knife radiosurgery (19 Gy of marginal dose) 1 year and 4 months ago. She developed headache, nausea, and visual disturbance 1 month prior to

Schwannoma arises from Schwann's cell of the neural sheath. Schwannoma of the large intestine, particularly of the appendix, is rare. We report a case of appendiceal schwannoma resected using laparoscopic surgery.

A 75-year-old man was referred to our hospital for abdominal
The treatment paradigm of skull base surgery has been changed from radical tumor resection to maximal tumor removal while giving priority to functional preservation. Facial nerve schwannoma is one of the representative disorders of this type of paradigm shift.1 This video demonstrates facial nerve
A 36-year-old lady presented with tinnitus and hearing loss for 1 year which was progressively worsening. A hearing test revealed pure tone average (PTA) between 48 to 65 dB and speech discrimination of 56% at 95 dB. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a right vestibular schwannoma 5 × 8
