Overview
Common physical examination findings of schwannoma include focal neurological deficits, impaired hearing, and paralysis.[1]
Physical Examination
- Papilledema on fundoscopic examination
- Focal neurological deficits, hypoesthesia, aphasia, ataxia, impaired hearing, facial paralysis, double vision, dizziness, but more severe symptoms might occur too, such as paralysis on one side of the body hemiplegia or impairment in swallowing)
- Changes that affect touch and the ability to feel pain, pressure, different temperatures, or other stimuli[1]
