[Relations between neurinoma of the VIII cranial nerve and the porus of the internal auditory meatus. Apropos of 110 cases].
110 cases of neurinomas of the VIIIth with APC extension (104 patients) were studied using MRI or CT. Classically, it is said that the tumoral mass is centered on the IAC. In our study, among 110 cases of neurinomas, only 9 were centered along the axis of IAC on axial slices and only 23 on coronal slices. The anterior development of the tumor is never more than 1 cm, except in 3 cases of large and multicystic neurinoma. We suggest that the anterior development of large tumors is limited by the VIIth nerve.
