Aspirin Intake may Halt Growth of Acoustic Neuromas

Researchers have demonstrated that aspirin intake correlates with halted growth of vestibular schwannomas, a sometimes lethal intracranial tumor that typically causes hearing loss and tinnitus. The researchers are from Massachusetts Eye and Ear, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Massachusetts General Hospital. Vestibular schwannomas is also known as acoustic neuromas. Motivated by experiments in the Molecular Neurotology Laboratory ...
