Auditory nerve surgery is usually referred to as acoustic neuroma surgery, and the success rate of the surgery is relatively high.
Auditory neuroma is a kind of common benign intracranial tumor, which is usually treated by surgical resection. The way of this surgery is relatively mature, and the success rate of the surgery is relatively high, so patients don’t need to worry too much, but the success rate will be affected by the size of the acoustic neuroma, its location, and its relationship with the surrounding tissues and other factors, so the specific situation needs to be judged according to the doctor’s examination combined with the individual’s situation.
If an acoustic neuroma is detected early and has not eroded the bone or nerves, the surgery is relatively simple and has a high success rate. However, if the acoustic neuroma is detected late and the tumor is large and has eroded the bone or pressed on the nerves, the success rate of the surgery will be lower than that of the early treatment, but it still has a high success rate.
Early detection and early treatment are needed for acoustic neuroma. As the tumor increases in size, it may cause facial nerve dysfunction and brainstem dysfunction due to the increase of intracranial pressure and invasion of tumor into the posterior cranial fossa, which may lead to symptoms such as incomplete eyelid closure, crooked mouth, hoarseness, respiratory difficulties and respiratory disorders, etc. The success rate of surgery will decrease accordingly. The success rate of the surgery will decrease accordingly.
