[Total removal of acoustic neurinoma].
The analysis is based on the results of a total removal of acoustic neurinomas in 120 patients operated on in 1967-1975. The facial nerve was preserved after surgery in 65 patients (54.2%). In the course of the recent 3 years the employment of microsurgical techniques permitted to preserve the VII nerve in 26 among 35 operated patients (74.3%). Among 103 examined postoperatively 96 retained their full or partial capacity for work (93.2%). Ten patients (8.3%) died after surgery. Within the recent 3 years 35 patients were operated on without a single mortality case.
