Treating skull based tumours including meningioma and vestibular schwannoma
The treatment of skull base tumours such as meningiomas and vestibular schwannomas is complex with many parallels between the two pathologies. Each patient and tumour should be assessed individually, and the treatment options presented equally for you to make an informed decision for your particular circumstances. It’s important to see an experienced multidisciplinary team that can provide all the available options so your treatment can be tailored appropriately.
