The Acoustic Neuroma Association (ANA) was established in 1981 in an effort to improve patients' treatment experiences and subsequent recovery by providing realistic and accurate patient information and by offering opportunities for positive interaction with other acoustic tumor patients. A history of the organization is given along with a description of publications and other ways the ANA can be a useful resource for patients and physicians. The ANA's growth since its founding demonstrates its usefulness to patients and physicians.
