Abstract

Acoustic neuroma is one of the most common tumors of the posterior cranial fossa. Its removal is always a challenge for the neurosurgeon and the patient. The history of surgery for acoustic neuromas is inextricably linked with the history of neurosurgery in general. The modern surgical community must know history and be able to use it. Only then will the development of surgery lead to the preservation of the quality of life of patients. In the history of surgery for acoustic neuromas, the stages of its development are clearly visible from the description of the clinical picture through the study of the anatomy of the cerebellopontine angle to modern microsurgical removal.
