Simultaneous Vestibular Schwannoma Resection and Cochlear Implantation Using Electrically Evoked Auditory Brainstem Response Audiometry for Decision-making

Conclusions: Simultaneous translabyrinthine vestibular schwannoma resection and cochlear implantation with intraoperative electrically evoked auditory brainstem response measurements is a feasible and promising option for sporadic vestibular schwannoma patients. Preservation of electrically evoked auditory brainstem responses seems to predict good subsequent hearing outcomes.
