Histologic patterns of cellular architecture often suggest a tissue diagnosis. Distinctive
histologic patterns seen within the peripheral nerve sheath tumor schwannoma include the …

Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging reliably demonstrate
typical features of vestibular schwannomas or meningiomas in the vast majority of mass …

Background Inflammation is hypothesized to be a key event in the growth of sporadic
vestibular schwannoma (VS). In this study we sought to investigate the relationship between …

Abstract Background and purpose Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is a safe and effective
treatment modality with a long-term tumor control rate over 90% for vestibular schwannoma …

Object Cystic vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a unique subgroup of VSs characterized by
unpredictable expansion of the cyst component. Little is known, however, about the …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Vestibular schwannomas (VS) may be difficult to
differentiate from cerebellopontine angle (CPA) meningiomas. Demonstration of …

OBJECTIVE. Schwannomas are typically benign tumors that occur sporadically, in
neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2), or in an entity called “schwannomatosis.” Schwannomatosis …

Schwannomas are benign soft-tissue tumors that arise from peripheral nerve sheaths
throughout the body and are commonly encountered in patients with neurofibromatosis Type …

Object The authors evaluated the clinical manifestations and surgical results in patients with
cystic vestibular schwannoma (VS), and investigated the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) …

Vestibular schwannomas show a large variation in growth rate, making prediction and
anticipation of tumor growth difficult. More accurate prediction of clinical behavior requires …
