Abstract :
Vestibular Schwannomas are the most common tumours of the cerebellopontine angle, with an estimated prevalence of 8–10% of all intracranial tumours and 70–80% of all CP angle tumours. [1]. Conventional Surgery has been the dominant treatment for Vestibular Schwannomas for decades. Gamma Knife surgery (GKS) has emerged as a treatment option that incorporates the benefits of radiation therapy while minimizing the adverse side effects of conventional surgery & conventional radiotherapy. We present our series of 247 cases of Vestibular Schwannoma, treated with GKS over the last 10 years and will present the multimodality treatment algorithms followed in our centre for these complex tumors & would review various treatment modalities currently available
