Study Summary

The purpose of this research is to develop a therapeutic agent to help improve facial nerve outcomes and ultimately improve long-term quality-of-life following surgical resection of vestibular schwannomas. It is possible the therapeutic agent may impact tumor control rates as well, and this will also be studied. Using rigorous scientific methods, we will assess whether these factors are impacted by the treatment agent (Omega-3) versus placebo control (cellulose).

Primary Outcome

Subjects will receive independent examination by at least three expert clinical assessors using the standardized, and clinically validated, House-Brackmann facial function score to characterize the severity of facial paralysis. Score is determined by measurements (in cm) of subjects movements of facial reference points on a scale of 0-8 which translate to grading system of grade I (normal) - Grade VI (no facial motion)
