Summary
The preoperative audiological findings of two patients with later on confirmed cerebello-pontine angle tumor are used to demonstrate how much uncharacteristically the pure tone threshold and supra threshold tests may look like. Common to both patients is, that the tumor only affected the brain stem but not the inner ear canal.
