The endolymphatic sac tumor is a slow-growing, locally aggressive neoplasm that originates from the epithelium of the endolymphatic sac and duct.

Early diagnosis and surgical attention are the primary objectives in the management of patients who have endolymphatic sac tumor. This article describes the latest rationale and techniques for hearing preservation surgery and a review of the latest developments surrounding this disease entity.
