Upcoming surgery for Acustic neuroma
I am anticipating a surgery at Mayo Clinic in Rochester to have an acustic neuroma removed. It is still considered small, but is growing at a more rapid rate, so surgery has been recommended as opposed to radiation. They are anticipating utilizing the retosigmoid approach with me. Wondering if anyone else has had this type of surgery recently and what type of recovery I should be preparing myself for. I know everyone's experience varies and there are a lot of aspects that make each surgery unique, but I am really wondering what I am up against.
Thank you
