Abstract
The vestibulocochlear nerve or cranial nerve eight (CN VIII) is the perfect synergy between two nerves: vestibular nerve and the cochlear nerve. CN VIII is responsible for maintaining body balance and eye movements in addition to conveying neural impulses related to hearing. Vestibulocochlear nerve injuries can subsist as a result of pathological processes or traumas involving the pontocerebellar angle, the internal acoustic meatus, or the inner ear. In such cases, symptoms such as vertigo and nystagmus may occur due to the involvement of the vestibular part, and tinnitus and hypacusia due to the involvement of the cochlear part.
