House\u2010Brackmann grades on presentation were 4\u00a0grade I, 2\u00a0grade II, 2\u00a0grade III, 1\u00a0grade IV, and 3\u00a0grade V, with 2\u00a0grade V patients declining to grade VI shortly after presentation. Seven patients presented with serviceable hearing and 4 with nonserviceable hearing. Treatment options\/arms included observation with serial clinicoradiological review (2 cases), stereotactic radiation with the CyberKnife (3 cases), wide fallopian canal decompression (3 cases), microsurgical excision and repair (3 cases), and biopsy followed by observation (1 case). At the end of the review period, facial nerve function was stable in 8 patients, improved in 3, and declined in 1, and none had documented worsening of hearing based on American Academy of Otolaryngology\u2014Head and Neck Surgery Foundation classification.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Management of FNT is largely based on the clinicoradiological picture.
