AB Vestibular  schwannomas  (acoustic  neuromas)  account  for  80%  of  all  lesions  of  the  cerebellopontine  angle  (CPA).  This  chapter  discusses  some  of  the  other  common  neoplasms  (meningiomas  and  epidermoid  cysts)  as  well  as  uncommon  tumors  of  the  CPA  that  commonly  present  with  injury  to  the  cochlear–vestibular  system.  Each  of  these  tumors  has  a  similar  clinical  presentation;  they  are  primarily  differentiated  by  their  imaging  characteristics.
