Occult intralabyrinthine schwannoma. 1981

M Hawke, and M Keene, and K T Robbins, and J M Fredrickson, and A Sima

Report of a case of an intralabynrinthine schwannoma discovered unexpectedly during a labyrinthectomy for intractable vertigo, and description of the light and electron microscopic appearances. Although only 18 of these tumors have been previously reported, it is possible that some cases which are categorized as peripheral vertigo of unknown origin, may be due to an occult Schwannoma. All material removed during surgical procedures on the inner ear should therefore be submitted for histopathological examination.

D009464 Neuroma, Acoustic A benign SCHWANNOMA of the eighth cranial nerve (VESTIBULOCOCHLEAR NERVE), mostly arising from the vestibular branch (VESTIBULAR NERVE) during the fifth or sixth decade of life. Clinical manifestations include HEARING LOSS; HEADACHE; VERTIGO; TINNITUS; and FACIAL PAIN. Bilateral acoustic neuromas are associated with NEUROFIBROMATOSIS 2.

D014717 Vertigo An illusion of movement, either of the external world revolving around the individual or of the individual revolving in space. Vertigo may be associated with disorders of the inner ear (EAR, INNER); VESTIBULAR NERVE; BRAINSTEM; or CEREBRAL CORTEX. Lesions in the TEMPORAL LOBE and PARIETAL LOBE may be associated with FOCAL SEIZURES that may feature vertigo as an ictal manifestation.
