Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Vestibular Schwannoma - A Case-Based Practice Guide from the Radiosurgery Society.

SRS is an effective and safe treatment modality for the majority of VS cases, requiring careful treatment planning and a thorough understanding of potential limitations and challenges.

This case-based practice guide aims to provide a concise overview of the treatment of VS with SRS. We present and discuss four different clinical scenarios of VS to illustrate the pitfalls and best practice recommendations.

Four clinical VS scenarios have been selected to illustrate the use of SRS, including a unilateral, small intracanalicular VS, a large VS with cystic components, reirradiation with SRS after local tumor recurrence, and bilateral VS in the setting of neurofibromatosis type 2-related schwannomatosis.
