OBJECTIVE: Tinnitus in one of the most common complaints of patients with acoustic neurinoma, which could lead to early diagnosis. Because postoperative tinnitus can have a profound effect on patients’ quality of life, candidates for surgery should be thoroughly informed about the possible effect of the operation on their tinnitus status. Questionnaires were the only source of information for tinnitus evaluation in previous studies, most of which were retrospective.
