Acoustic tumors (neuromas) are typically slow-growing, benign (noncancerous) tumors that develop on a portion of the eighth cranial nerve that connects the inner ear to the brain. An acoustic neuroma is sometimes also called a vestibular schwannoma or neurolemmoma. See Howell Allen’s Specialties page.
