How long does it take to recover from nerve sheath tumor surgery

How long it takes to recover from nerve sheath tumor surgery is often related to the location and size of the nerve sheath tumor, as well as the general condition of the patient, etc. The specific conditions are different, and the recovery time is different. 1. Intracranial nerve sheath tumor: common example is auditory nerve sheath tumor. If the size of this kind of tumor is large, it may compress the cerebellum, brainstem, and the posterior group of cranial nerves, and the recovery time after surgery may be relatively prolonged, sometimes up to one month or so. 2. Intravertebral nerve sheath tumor: some nerve sheath tumors can occur in the vertebral canal, and after the disease, patients may have typical radicular pain, which manifests as radiating pain along the distribution area of one or several nerve roots, and the pain is aggravated at night. The postoperative recovery time for patients with this condition takes 1~2 weeks, and even some patients with good general condition only need 3~7 days to recover.
