Cerebellopontine angle lipoma in asymptomatic patients: case report.
Lipomas represent approximately 0.15% of cerebellopontine angle tumors.1 Audiometric findings include unilateral or asymmetrical sensorineural hearing loss with low speech recognition index (SRI).2 Imaging procedures, particularly nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), confirm the diagnosis.1--4 There is no image enhancement with gadolinium; in this scenario, special fat suppression sequences are pa...
متن کاملCerebellopontine Angle Epidermoid Cyst: Case Report
Epidermoid cysts are rare congenital tumors of the central nervous system (CNS), histologically benign and slowgrowing lesions. Their frequency among primitive intracranial tumors is about 1% and they account for 40% of all intracranial epidermoid of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA); there they constitute the third most frequent neoplasm (5%), after acoustic neuromas and meningiomas. We report ...
متن کاملDiagnostic Dilemma: Cerebellopontine Angle Lipoma Versus Dermoid Cyst
Both lipomas and dermoid cysts of the cerebellopontine angle are rare tumors. These tumors differ in their embryological origin but share similar features on imaging. Both of these congenital lesions can be found in the cerebellopontine angle (CPA), and symptomatic clinical presentation is dictated by the location of the lesion. This paper demonstrates a unique case in which a CPA lipoma was mi...
متن کاملPrimary cerebellopontine angle Rathke's cleft cyst: case report.
We report a case of 25-year-old man presenting with a 2-year history of decreased hearing and tinnitus on the right side. Neurological examination revealed profound right retrocochlear sensorineural hearing abnormality, mild right facial spasm and positive Romberg sign. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a giant lesion, hypointense on T1-weighted image and hyperintense on T2-weighted ima...
متن کاملPrimary cerebellopontine angle melanoma: a case report and review.
Primary melanomas at the cerebellopontine (CP) angle are extremely rare and considered a diagnostic dilemma. With only 16 prior cases reported so far, there is not enough material in world literature. We report a 29-year-old male who presented with vertigo, headache and features of lower cranial nerve involvement with MRI revealing a melanotic lesion at CP angle. The patient und...
