Hello Sir

Please review my Acoustic Neuroma case as below and advice if Gamma Knife or CyberKnife will work in this case. Summary of the MRI Report :

Right CP Angle Cystic Schwannoma (Acoustic Neuroma)
Size : 33x30x23 mm
Patient Age : 24 Years
15-20% Hearing Left in Right Ear (Wants to be preserved if possible)

I have read much about Gamma Knife and Cyber Knife which have proved to be of excellence and minimal failure rate and damage to facial nerve. How can I be 100% sure to go for this radio treatment instead of the complicated surgery. Also as per the report is it advisable ?

I realize you are in distress but adding your question to an existing discussion when you've posted the same question in another thread doesn't do you any good.

You'll get plenty of responses at your other post:

So please don't mind if I have your post removed, if possible.
