Abstract:
92 cases of suspected eight nerve tumors are analysed. Correlations between the findings in audiological and vestibular tests, patient histories and findings in conventional x-ray examinations and on the other hand those obtained in meatocisternography with air contrast in computerized tomography are drawn in order to see whether specific features of audiological tests can predict the meatocisternographic finding. The cases with positive findings are verified at surgery.
