The eighth nerve enters the brain stem at the junction of the pons and medulla lateral to the facial nerve.
The auditory component of the eighth nerve terminates in a sensory nucleus called the cochlear nucleus which is located at the junction of the pons and medulla.

 Acoustic Neuroma NY, Neurosurgeon New York, Long Island, Queens, Nassau, Suffolk, Brain Tumor MRI
The term "acoustic neuroma" is actually a misnomer since the tumor never arises from the acoustic division of the vestibulocochlear nerve (cranial nerve VIII) and the tumor is not a neuroma but a schwannoma.
During removal of the tumor, the tumor along with the superior and inferior vestibular nerves are removed.
Earliest symptoms of acoustic neuromas include hearing loss/deafness, disturbed sense of balance and altered gait, vertigo with associated nausea and vomiting, and pressure in the ear, all of which can be attributed to the disruption of normal vestibulocochlear nerve function.
