RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of wait and scan (W&S) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) over time in patients with a stable vestibular schwannoma (VS) and growing VS. STUDY DESIGN: Longitudinal, multicenter, observational study. SETTING: Tertiary expert center for VS (Radboudumc Nijmegen) and Gamma-Knife center ETZ Hospital Tilburg. METHODS: Changes in HRQoL, measured with the Penn Acoustic Neuroma Quality-of-Life (PANQOL), and the physical and mental component summary scores (PCS and MCS, respectively) derived from the 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), were compared among patients managed by W&S and SRS between 2017 and 2022. Second, HRQoL over time in patients with a growing VS was compared between W&S and SRS. RESULTS: Differences in PANQOL total and subdomain scores, PCS and MCS scores over time in the W&S (n = 73) and SRS (n = 170) groups were nonsignificant and on average did not exceed the minimal clinically important differences (mean difference of -2.56 [PANQOL total], 1.22 [PCS], and -1.76 [MCS]; all P > .05). In growing VS, comparison of W&S (n = 29) and SRS (n = 154) also revealed no significant difference (mean difference of 1.19 (PANQOL total), 1.83 (PCS) and -0.12 (MCS); all P > .05). CONCLUSION: Differences in HRQoL in patients with VS are minor and not significantly different or clinically relevant between patients managed with W&S or SRS. Similarly, patients with a growing VS managed with W&S or SRS exhibit no significant or clinical relevant difference in HRQoL during follow-up. This can aid clinicians in the counseling of patients regarding HRQoL when deciding on a management strategy after diagnosis or documented growth.
