    Unilateral acoustic neuromas are rare in children but typically benign. This case report details the youngest patient with a malignant unilateral acoustic neuroma, confirmed by histopathology and clinical progression.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Oncology
    • Neurosurgery
    • Otolaryngology

    Background:

    • Unilateral acoustic neuromas are uncommon in pediatric populations.
    • Symptoms in children mirror those in adults, with no gender bias.
    • These tumors are generally benign and not associated with neurofibromatosis.

    Observation:

    • This study presents the case of the youngest child diagnosed with a unilateral acoustic neuroma.
    • The tumor was histopathologically confirmed as malignant.
    • The malignancy was further supported by the tumor's subsequent clinical behavior.

    Findings:

    • The youngest reported pediatric case of unilateral acoustic neuroma.
    • First documented instance of malignant unilateral acoustic neuroma in a child.

  • Histopathological and clinical evidence confirmed tumor malignancy.

    • Implications:

    • Highlights the potential for malignant acoustic neuromas in pediatric patients.
    • Underscores the importance of thorough histopathological evaluation for pediatric acoustic neuromas.
    • Suggests the need for vigilance in monitoring pediatric acoustic neuromas, even when initially appearing benign.
