Vestibular schwannoma is a benign tumor that develops on the eighth cranial nerve, which is responsible for hearing and balance. Surgery may be necessary to remove the tumor if it is causing symptoms such as balance problems or hearing loss. Otitis media, labyrinthitis, and Meniere's disease are all inner ear conditions but do not typically require surgery as a first-line treatment.
