title: [New protocol for the early diagnosis of acoustic schwannoma in the outpatient clinic].
abstract: For the last two years we have been testing a protocol for early diagnosis of acoustic schwannoma. We analyzed the results obtained in outpatients of the ENT clinic for ten months. Using the protocol described 10.7% accurate diagnoses, were obtained although in only one diagnosis was made in the intracanalicular stadium that was susceptible to ENT surgery.
