Diagnostic 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 کاملCerebellopontine 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 کاملA Case of Bell’s Palsy with an Incidental Finding of a Cerebellopontine Angle Lipoma
This case report illustrates the potential fallacy of attributing a patient's symptoms to an incidental finding. Serial imaging of small, asymptomatic cerebellopontine angle (CPA) lipomas is favored. It is imperative to accurately diagnose CPA lipoma on imaging and differentiate it from more common CPA lesions. We herein present a patient with symptoms consistent with Bell's palsy and an incide...
متن کاملCerebellopontine angle medulloblastoma.
An extremely rare case of a right cerebellopontine angle medulloblastoma in a five year old Malay girl which had eroded into the petrous bone and extended into the temporal fossa is reported.

متن کاملCerebellopontine angle cavernous hemangioma.
Cavernous hemangioma, also known as cavernous angioma, accounts for 10-20% of vascular malformations.1,2 Extra-axial lesions are rare. Most tumors are found in the sinuses, Meckel’s cavity, posterior fossa, including the cerebellarpontine angle and internal auditory meatus.3 This paper reports the clinical case of a patient with cavernous hemangioma involving the internal auditory meatus whose ...
