Acoustic neuromas presenting with symptoms of morbus Menière.
If a patient with Menière's disease or a sudden deafness does not respond to adequate therapy, an acoustic neuroma should be excluded. This is achieved by a positive contrast cisternography using multidirectional tomography. The examples might have shown that sometimes acoustic neuromas present with atypical symptoms, with sudden deafness or even with the typical symptoms of morbus menière.
