Jeff's post has one minor inaccuracy..he notes that acoustic tumors 
arise "within the brainstem"..this is certainly true for some...but 
others are so-called extra-axial tumors that arrise from positions 
external to the brainstem...for example they can grow within the 
internal auditory canal...actually the most liely spot to find them is 
at the CP angle......hope this adds to the discussion....tnd
