Abstract The carbon dioxide laser has been used clinically in both otorhinolaryngology and neurological surgery for approximately 10 years. Only recently, however, have technical modifications allowed its use with the operating microscope, providing the increased precision and control necessary for intracranial surgery. This paper reports the authors' experience with the carbon dioxide laser in the removal of acoustic tumors, details the surgical technique involved, and describes the advantages that may accompany the use of the laser in the removal of these difficult lesions.
