Quality of life after acoustic neuroma treatment
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at how acoustic neuroma and its treatments affect your quality of life, and whether you later regret the choices you made. Researchers want to know if follow-up or surgery makes a difference.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a sporadic (not inherited) acoustic neuroma
- You are either being watched with a 'wait and scan' approach or have had surgery to remove the neuroma
- You have not received radiation therapy to your head or neck
- You have not had facial paralysis before treatment for the neuroma
- You do not have a major mental illness that started before your neuroma diagnosis
- You do not have chronic migraines or postural instability that started before your neuroma diagnosis
