Abstract

The review deals with the actual problem of neurooncology — diagnostics and treatment of vestibular schwannoma (VS). Analysis of the world’s scientific literature was carried out regarding modern information on epidemiology, classification systems, early diagnosis and clinical features of VS. The direction of further study of problem of VS early diagnosis were outlined, first of all, by creating a standardized version of the clinical-instrumental complex examination of patients with suspicion on VS. Current status of VS diagnostics requires clarification of informative value of the newest instrumental methods in complex with analysis of main clinical manifestations, and assessment of he expedience of their application according to the medical, economic, legal and social reasons. There is need to further accumulation and systematization of clinical material, follow-up periods increasing, comparison of obtained data with similar series of studies on the problem of VS early diagnostic and treatment.
