Our neurosurgeons, neurotologists, radiation oncologists and other neurology specialists have board certifications and fellowship training in skull base surgery and years of experience in treating Acoustic Neuroma. Our expertise includes:
At The Center for Acoustic Neuroma, our expert physicians have all the possible treatment options available to manage your Acoustic Neuroma. Our team has extensive experience treating these tumors using microsurgical resection or the completely noninvasive procedure—CyberKnife, a robotic radiosurgery—to deliver targeted radiation. In addition, if managing the tumor conservatively with MRI monitoring is indicated, we have the most advanced MRI machines and Acoustic Neuroma Protocols available to assess for changes in the tumor.
Our highly skilled specialists lead our care teams of neuro-certified nurses and other clinicians to bring you the latest, most advanced care practices for Acoustic Neuroma. Our neurosurgeons, neurotologists and radiation oncologists have the experience and innovativeness to formulate a custom plan for each patient and provide the best treatment available.
We have pioneered techniques to treat Acoustic Neuroma while preserving function. Our surgical experience and innovativeness has allowed us to develop approaches that allow highest rates of facial nerve preservation and function as well as least risk of injury to the brain. We do not use any retractors during our surgical removal of Acoustic Neuroma, greatly reducing the risk to the brain and surrounding nerves and improving preservation of function, which is our number one goal.
When you choose The Center for Acoustic Neuroma for your treatment, we coordinate your care so that you can schedule multiple appointments with our Acoustic Neuroma experts from many disciplines, who collaborate for your care. Our physicians are leaders of the Baylor University Medical Center Skull Base Team and Medical City Dallas Skull Base Program, and cases are routinely discussed in this forum to develop best treatment plans.
