Magnetic Resonance Imaging Surveillance for Vestibular Schwannoma After Microsurgical Resection Using a Retrosigmoid Transmeatal Approach.
BACKGROUND Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a benign, usually slow-growing tumor. The drawback of radical microsurgical VS resection is the increased likelihood of neurologic injury, forcing surgeons to leave a tumor remnant in some cases. We evaluated the prognostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enhancement patterns to determine the risk of tumor regrowth. METHODS This clinical study included 30 patients (20 women and 10 men) with VS who underwent surgery via a retrosigmoid transmeatal approach. The extent of resection was assessed by MRI 6 months after surgery. Two subtypes of intracanalicular linear enhancement were defined: linear enhancement of the walls of the internal audito…
