Although surgical removal is generally regarded as the management strategy of choice for acoustic tumors, there remains a small group of patients usually with small or intracanalicular tumors in whom nonoperative management may be a desirable alternative to operation. The authors present a series of six such cases and discuss criteria that may aid in the selection of patients suitable for initial nonoperative management.
尽管手术切除通常被视为听神经瘤的首选治疗策略，但仍有一小部分患者，通常是患有小型或管内型肿瘤的患者，对于他们而言，非手术治疗可能是比手术更理想的选择。作者报告了一系列6例此类病例，并讨论了有助于选择适合初始非手术治疗患者的标准。
