  • Title: Stenosis of the internal auditory meatus masquerading as bilateral vestibular schwannomas: a cautionary tale.
    Author: Sen A, Khan MI, Ramsden RT, Gillespie JE.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 2005 Dec; 119(12):995-7. PubMed ID: 16354367.
    Abstract:
    Stenotic malformations of the internal auditory meatus (IAM) are rare. They are known to symptomatically mimic vestibular schwannomas leading to potential diagnostic error. We present a case (along with literature review) where a stenotic IAM was clinically and radiologically misdiagnosed as a vestibular schwannoma.
