What are the symptoms of acoustic neuroma

Tinnitus is a common early symptom of acoustic neuroma. Tinnitus is often persistent, high-profile and unilateral. Tinnitus usually occurs together with hearing loss. The mechanism of tinnitus is due to the invasion of nerves and blood vessels.

Facial nerve dysfunction usually occurs in the late stage of the disease, and small acoustic neuroma patients rarely have these symptoms. The incidence was 2%. The clinical manifestations were facial muscle twitch caused by hyperfunction and muscle paralysis caused by hypofunction. Usually both symptoms occur at the same time.

Hearing loss or hearing loss is the most common examination result of patients with acoustic neuroma. Research shows that more than 95% of patients will have hearing loss in the course of patients' onset. The most common is progressive, high-frequency sensorineural hearing loss. In addition, the rate of patients with decreased speech recognition rate is higher than that of patients with pure sensing hearing loss.
