Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the surgical outcome of cystic vestibular schwannoma patients with fluid-level imaging by MRI.Methods Forty-five patients of cystic vestibular schwannoma were enrolled and divided into fluid-level (n =24) group and non-fluid-level (n =21) group by MRI.The incidence of peritumoral adhesion,incidence of complete tumor removal and postoperative facial nerve function of the two groups were recorded.Results The incidence of peritumoral adhesion in fluid-level and non-fluid-level group were 70.8％ (17/24) and 28.6％ (6/21),and the difference was significant (x2 =8.010,P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of complete tumor removal were 45.8％ (11/24) and 76.2％ (16/21) in fluid-level and non-fluid-level group,which showed significant differences between groups (x2 =4.30 ; P ＜ 0.05).Patients of House-Brackmann grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ in fluid-level group at discharge and one year after operation,were 62.5％ (15/24) and 50.0％ (8/16),and 81.0％ (17/21) and 83.3％ (15/18) in non-fluid-level group.The was significant difference at one year after operation (P ＜ 0.05) in terms of patients of House-Brackmann grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ.Conclusion The cystic vestibular schwannoma patients with fluid level have more frequency to adhere to surrounding neurovascular structures and less favorable surgical outcome.These findings may be useful in predicting surgical outcome and making surgical strategy preoperatively.
