Abstract
Over the last couple of decades, the increased availability of magnetic resonance
imaging dramatically influenced to the therapeutic approach of vestibular schwannomas
(VSs). However, there are few reports about the course of VS patients following
conservative management (CM) compared with gamma knife radiosurgery (GKR). In
the current study, we present data of 106 unilateral and one bilateral (due to NF2) VS
patient controlled CM (67), GKRS (27) and conventional neurosurgery (13).
Objectives
The main aim of our study was to compare CM and/or the natural course of VS growth
with the effects following GKR along with additional treatment and symptom
development during the follow-up. We also aimed to evaluate the utility of diagnostic
tests and efficiency of CM in case of small VSs.
