A rare case of recurrent Vestibular Schwannoma

A vestibular Schwannoma is a non-cancerous primary intracranial tumor of the myelin-forming cells of the vestibulo-cochlear nerve (8th cranial nerve). It grows slowly or not at all. Rarely, it may grow rapidly and become large enough to press against the brain and interfere with the vital functions. Treatment includes regular monitoring, radiation and surgical removal. Here we report a rare case of recurrent vestibular Schwannoma which recurred after complete removal of tumor.
