Hearing preservation in vestibular schwannoma surgery has evolved significantly. Recent studies identify factors like tumor size and MRI signals that predict successful hearing outcomes after microsurgery.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Otolaryngology
  • Audiology

Background:

  • Vestibular schwannoma (VS) surgery aims to preserve hearing.
  • Hearing preservation rates vary widely in current literature.
  • Identifying prognostic factors is crucial for surgical decision-making.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent literature on hearing preservation in VS microsurgery.
  • To identify key prognostic factors influencing hearing outcomes.
  • To summarize landmark and recent studies in the field.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent and significant contributions.
  • Analysis of studies reporting hearing preservation rates.
  • Identification and synthesis of prognostic factors for hearing preservation.

Main Results:

  • Hearing preservation rates range from 2% to 93% across studies.
  • Preoperative factors like tumor size, approach, and neurophysiological testing are significant.
  • Recent research highlights the association between internal auditory canal MRI T2 signal and hearing preservation.

Conclusions:

  • Hearing preservation in VS surgery has seen substantial advancements.
  • Prognostic factors are essential for predicting hearing outcomes.
  • This review outlines these factors and recent research contributions.
