Overview
Chronic gradual unilateral hearing impairment is the most common complaint present in 95% of the patients. Common symptoms include chronic gradual unilateral hearing loss, ringing in the ear, Disequilibrium, facial numbness, facial pain, and Headache. Less common symptoms include facial muscle weakness, taste disturbances, dryness of the eyes, sudden lacrimation, speech problem, difficulty swallowing, aspiration, hoarseness, and ear pain.
History and Symptoms
History
- Chronic gradual unilateral hearing impairment is the most common complaint present in 95% of the patients.
- The hearing impairment usually occurs in patients with longstanding disease but acoustic neuroma may also present with sudden sensorineural hearing loss.
- Ringing in the ear (tinnitus) is an associated complaint among patients with the involvement of cochlear nerve.[1]
- Approximately 50% of patients with acoustic neuroma report disequilibrium and sense of unsteadiness while walking.
Common Symptoms
- Chronic gradual unilateral hearing loss[2][3][4][5][6]
- Ringing in the ear
- Disequilibrium
- Facial numbness
- Facial pain
- Headache
Less Common Symptoms
- Facial muscle weakness[2][3][4][5][6]
- Taste disturbances
- Dryness of the eyes
- Sudden lacrimation

- Speech problem
- Difficulty swallowing
- Aspiration
- Hoarseness
- Ear pain
The below table summarize information about the frequency of major symptoms and signs of acoustic neuroma:[7][3][8][9][10]
