Résumé

Like other vestibular schwannomas developing in the internal auditory canal, intralabyrinthine schwannomas (ILS) may present with similar symptoms as in endolymphatic hydrops. Two different studies have described MR saccular hydrops in ~ 30% of internal auditory canal vestibular schwannomas, but this association has never been studied in ILS before. The aim of this work is to study the prevalence of a saccular dilation in ILS, on a T2-weigthed sequence at 3 T, compared to a control group.
