Sentara Neuroscience Network Acoustic Neuroma This is a slow-growing, non-cancerous tumor affecting the hearing nerve. Acoustic neuromas account for about nine percent of all brain tumors, and generally affect females of middle age. Symptoms You may have one or several of these symptoms, and they may be mild to severe, depending upon the location and size of your tumor. * loss of hearing in one ear * buzzing or ringing in the ear * facial paralysis * loss of facial sensation * difficulty swallowing * impaired eye movement * taste disturbances * unsteadiness Testing The first step in testing involves routine auditory tests to indicate general hearing loss and a reduced ability to understand what is being said, possibly followed by: CT (Computed Tomography) scan : This is a combination of an x-ray device and a computer. X-rays are taken of the brain, and this information is fed into a computer which transforms the data into a picture. In some cases, the patient is injected with a special dye to make abnormal tissue more evident. MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) : This procedure uses a tunnel-shaped piece of equipment that contains a magnetic field and radio energy; no x-rays are involved. Magnetic signals are fed into a computer which assembles a picture. Because the MRI ignores bone which can obstruct CT images, this device provides a clearer picture of tumors located near the bone, and can provide a wider variety of image angles. It can detect edema (swelling), but has difficulty distinguishing edema from a tumor. MRI imaging takes longer than a CT scan, and is very noisy. Patients with cardiac monitors, pacemakers or surgical clips cannot take an MRI because of conflict with the magnetic fields.

T2-weighted axial image T1-weighted coronal image T1-weighted coronal image with gadolinium enhancement Image Findings The T2-weighted image shows a small intermediate signal mass in the left internal auditory canal. The T1-weighted images show the mass to have marked, homogeneous enhancement. Differential Diagnosis Meningioma Neuritis Post-operative fibrosis Discussion The acoustic neuroma is the most common cerebellar-pontine angle mass, accounting for 60%-75% of all masses in this region.

April 1, 2002 Organization name: Acoustic Neuroma Association Founded: Contact Person: Lois White Address: 600 Peachtree Pkwy, Suite 108, Cumming, GA 30041-6899 Phone: Fax: E-mail: ANAusa@aol.com URL: http://www.anausa.org/ Mission: To provide information and support to those diagnosed with, treated for, or affected by acoustic neuroma or other benign tumors of the cranial nerves. Background: The Acoustic Neuroma Association was founded in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, by a recovered patient, Virginia Fickel Ehr, who found no patient information or patient support available when she had surgery for the removal of an acoustic neuroma in 1977. She resolved that future acoustic neuroma patients should have easy-to-read medical material about their condition and support and comfort from each other. With the help of her physician, she contacted eight other patients and formed the organization. The association is now incorporated and has 501 © (3) status (non-profit) from the Internal Revenue Service. The group currently serves nearly 5,000 members, is governed by an all-patient Executive Board and is operated by a small staff in Cumming, GA, a northern suburb of Atlanta. Current Programs: ANA produces eight informational booklets, maintains a website at
