Discussion

This technique preserves hearing and vestibular function in various tumors, suggesting improved surgical outcomes with neuromonitoring.

The retrolabyrinthine approach effectively preserves hearing in surgeries involving cerebellopontine angle tumors, which are often challenging to treat.
Using contemporary neuromonitoring technology improves surgical outcomes by allowing near-real-time monitoring of hearing and facial nerve function.
This minimally invasive procedure with endoscopes enhances the surgical field overview, enabling complete removal of pathologies while preserving vital anatomical structures.
Various pathologies including meningiomas and vestibular schwannomas can be effectively treated using this less common surgical approach.

Per Cayé-Thomasen (2025) studied this question.
