  • Title: Pathological laughter as a presenting symptom of acoustic schwannoma: report of two cases.
    Author: Muzumdar DP, Goel A.
    Journal: J Clin Neurosci; 2003 May; 10(3):384-6. PubMed ID: 12763354.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of acoustic schwannoma in a 48-year-old woman and 18-year-old male are reported. Both patients presented with an extremely unusual symptom of pathological laughter as a principal presenting symptom. Complete resection of the tumour via a retrosigmoid route resulted in an immediate resolution of pathological laughter.
