This paper reviews the history of acoustic tumor surgery and sets forth the technique of translabyrinthine surgery. Thirty-five patients with 36 tumors are presented and the results explained in detail. A plea is made for standardization of reporting results and some of the controversy concerning surgical technique is discussed briefly.

Surgical management of cerebellopontine angle meningiomas is challenging due to the intricate neurovascular structures within the limited operative field and the compression of eloquent structures including the brainstem. Surgery on tumors extending into the temporal bone is especially difficult and demands complicated approaches. However, modifications to the retrosigmoid approach utilizing intradural temporal bone drilling enable access to such tumoral extensions without any additional invasive approaches. This video demonstrates the case of a cerebellopontine angle meningioma extending into the internal acoustic meatus and jugular foramen that was surgically treated through the retrosigmoid transmeatal and suprajugular approaches under continuous vagus nerve monitoring.The video can be found here: https://youtu.be/aUD1vr6TbOc.
