Symptoms and Diagnosis of Acoustic Neuroma Symptoms of an acoustic neuroma can be associated with the size of the tumor, but this is not always consistent. Many patients experience few symptoms, even with the presence of a large tumor. The most common symptoms of an acoustic neuroma are hearing loss in one ear and a sensation of fullness often associated with tinnitus, or head noise. John Oghalai, MD, a professor and the chair of the USC Caruso Department of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery, also a neurotologist and skull base surgeon, answers frequently asked questions about acoustic neuroma: • What Are the Symptoms of an Acoustic Neuroma? • Does an Acoustic Neuroma Cause Pain? • How Is an Acoustic Neuroma Diagnosed? • How Fast Do Acoustic Neuromas Grow and Do They Spread? Need a Consultation? Connect with a specialist today by calling the USC Acoustic Neuroma Center at (323) 442-5790.
