Abstract

The management of VP and its associated cranial nerve deficits remains a difficult clinical problem. Options for treatment include surgical resection, radiation therapy, and, in selected cases, observation. Surgical extirpation requires a multidisciplinary skull base team to achieve complete tumor resection. Radiation therapy is reserved for elderly patients and patients at risk for bilateral cranial nerve deficits. Rehabilitation of cranial nerve deficits is an integral part of the management of VP.
