  • Title: Unilateral acoustic neuroma and cerebellopontine angle lesions in children.
    Author: Laha RK, Huestis WS.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1975 Oct; 4(4):371-4. PubMed ID: 1179259.
    Abstract:
    A case of unilateral acoustic neuroma in a girl of ten years without any stigmata or family history of von Recklinghausen's disease is presented. Despite the relatively large size of the tumor, a complete removal was achieved with preservation of function of the facial nerve and a fortuitous preservation of useful hearing. Such tumors are rare in childhood. A brief differential diagnosis of other lesions in the cerebelloponitine angle is mentioned along with a pertinent review of literature.
