[Postoperative vasospasm after clipping of intracranial aneurysms (author's transl)].

abstract：BACKGROUND:In patients with a vestibular schwannoma, some studies have reported that useful hearing preserved initially after surgery deteriorates gradually in the long term. Studies with more patients are needed to clarify the maintenance rate of postoperative hearing function and to identify prognostic of hearing fun...
