Surgical treatment of acoustic neuroma (vestibular schwannoma) in the United States: report from the Acoustic Neuroma Registry.

In 1989, the Acoustic Neuroma Association established a multisurgeon, multi-institutional registry to collect data related to the treatment of patients with acoustic neuroma. This report analyzes information from the 1579 surgically treated patients who were entered in the registry between January 1, 1989, and February 28, 1994.
