We can called it by another name of vestibular schwannoma,
that
is noncancerous and that is usually growing with slow tumor of these develops
main vestibular with nerve that are leading from of the inner ear in brain.
These branches of the nerve directly influence
the balance of hearing in the human, this pressure having a cause of the
hearing loss that are ringing in the ear continuously.
The neuroma is usually
arises from schwann cells that are covering with the nerve that are grows at
slowly and that are not at all. It will grow rapidly that become large enough
to against on brain with interfere the vital functions.
The treatments of neuroma that include it regular monitoring,
and radiation of the surgical removal.
Causes of neuroma
They are two types of neuroma Sporadic form and a form of
associated with the syndrome that called neurofibromatosis (NF2). These are two
type of inherited disorder that is the characterized growth this is the
noncancerous of the tumors in the nervous system. That is the most common
tumors of the occur in the both ears in the age of 30.
The NF2 is the rare disorder. That accounts 5% only of
acoustic neuromas. That means the majority vast are sporadic form. And doctors
aren’t certain with causes of sporadic form. That is the on of the known risk
factor that neuroma exposure a high doses of the radiation, especially on head
and neck.
Any risk of the acoustic neuroma
Neurofibromatosis type 2
That is only confirmed is risk of factor on acoustic of
neuroma that having a parent with some
rare genetic disorder of neurofibromatosis. But they are only accounts about a
5 percent of the acoustic of neuroma cases.
The hallmark of neurofibromatosis is the development of the
noncancerous of the tumors that is balance on nerves that both sides of your
head, as well as the other nerves. Neurofibromatosis is the known as autosomal or dominant
of disorder, that meaning is mutation that can be passed by just one parents of each
child that can affected parents are 50-50 chance of inheriting.
Complication neuroma
The variety of permanent complications can be caused by
neuroma, including:
● Hearing loss
● The facial numbness and
weakness
● Ringing in the ear
● Difficulties with balance
Symptoms of neuroma
The brain stem of cerebellum,that can be deadly
Some early symptoms of the neuroma that are often subtle. So
the many people are attribute of the symptoms that are normal changes of the
aging, so before the condition will be
diagnosed.
First symptoms that are usually a gradual loss of the hearing
in one ear, that are accompanied by the ringing in ear (tinnitus) and this
feeling of fullness in the ear.
Other symptoms are included:
● Balance with problem
● Vertigo
● Facial weakness
● Taste changes
● Headaches
● Clumsiness or unsteadiness
● Confusion
The numbness of
tingling, which are constant come and go this is so important to see the doctor
for some more experience of these type of the symptoms.
So that they clumsiness and have a mental confusion in a
serious signal of the problem that are required for some urgent treatment.
Treatment of neuroma
Three courses:
● Observation : This is called watchful waiting. Because the neuromas are
not cancerous that’s grow slowly, this is the immediate treatment that may not
necessary. That doctors monitor the tumor with have a periodic MRI scans that
will suggest the other treatment of the tumor increasing and have a lots of
serious causes and symptoms.
● Surgery : The surgery may
involve to removing the all part of tumor.
● Radiation therapy : This therapy recommended by some cases of acoustic
and neuromas. State of the art is delivery with techniques to make that
possible to sena some high doses of radiation While the tumor limiting of expose and damage some
surrounding issue.
The radiation therapy is delivered in
two ways.
● The single fraction of
stereotactic of radiosurgery with a hundreds of small beams of the radiation
that are aimed to the tumor in the single session.
● Stereotactic radiotherapy
fractionated in multi-session that delivers a smaller doses of the radiation,
In generally the over of several weeks of studies suggest that the
multi-session of therapy that may preserve of hearing better than SRS.
