Abstract
Fortunately, the day is past when our diagnostic capability was limited to the recognition of patients with advanced tumors who presented with multiple cranial neuropathy and increased intracranial pressure. In no small measure this has been due, in recent years, to advances in the recognition of these tumors by positive contrast material. The polytome pantopaque study is an extension of this work and has allowed an accurate assessment of those patients with small tumors presenting with minimal neurologic and otologic complaints in whom the diagnosis of an acoustic tumor is suspect.Keywords
