Figure 1 Correlation between tumor size and extent of resection in vestibular schwannomas. This scatter plot demonstrates the relationship between tumor size (cm) and the extent of resection (%) for highly hemorrhagic (“more-bleeding” patients; red circles) and less hemorrhagic (“less-bleeding” patients; blue squares) vestibular schwannomas. The trend lines show a negative correlation between tumor size and extent of resection for both groups, with larger and more hemorrhagic tumors associated with lower resection rates.
