Vestibular schwannoma surgery leads to acute unilateral vestibular loss. In some patients, however, the process of post-operatively initiated central compensation proceeds more rapidly than in others. This study aimed evaluate post-operative function and correlate it with morphological findings MRI scans.The included 29 patients who underwent for schwannoma. was analysed by video head impulse test (vHIT). Subjective symptoms were evaluated using validated questionnaires. All 3 months...
Resection of the vestibular schwannoma causes acute peripheral loss. The process central compensation starts immediately afterward. rehabilitation goal is to support this and restore quality life.
Microsurgical extirpation is one of the basic modalities treatment for patients with vestibular schwannoma. Considering significant decrease in mortality and morbidity schwannoma past decades, quality life has become most important criterion current management. Despite great scientific technological progress surgical schwannoma, we can encounter a number serious complications that have major impact on life. A questionnaire studies confirm these are mainly postoperative facial nerve lesion,...

Immunotherapy is a promising therapeutic modality that has rapidly gained its place in the treatment of many malignancies. The assumption effect head and neck tumors stems from high mutational load these tumors. Phase I clinical trials were consistent with preclinical assumptions. Subsequent phase II III confirmed efficacy check-point inhibitors nivolumab (OPDIVO) second-line palliation, case pembrolizumab, first-line recurrent metastatic cancer. In Czech Republic, use pemobrolizumab was...
Summary Laryngocele is a rare benign disease of the larynx that originates from dilating laryngeal ventricles. The laryngocele communicates with lumen and so filled air.
