Intraoperative pictures of the left auditory nerve near the brainstem before and after resection. (A) After microdissection and lifting of the flocculus, the lesion was exposed. (B) The location of the lesion and its relationship with the surrounding neurovascular structure became obvious after the lesion was completely resected. (C) The cochlear nerve was gently pulled upward to expose the proximal end of the facial nerve. (D) Relationship between the innermost side of the lesion and the lower cranial nerves and the foramen of Luschka
