Abstract
A highly specialized team of providers representing many disciplines (ie, otolaryngology, neurosurgery, neurology, and audiology) is necessary to treat patients diagnosed with cerebellopontine angle (CPA) tumors adequately. Surgical management of these tumors is incredibly complex and requires a nuanced understanding of the treatment protocol at every level, from patient selection and preoperative work-up to operative techniques and postoperative recovery. In this article, we strive to give the neurotologist's perspective on resection of CPA tumors via the translabyrinthine approach.
