We present the case of a 48-year-old woman with a cerebellopontine angle meningioma who presented with sensorineural hearing loss. The lesion was nearly 4 cm in maximum dimension and extended into the internal auditory canal. Hearing loss resulting from cerebellopontine angle tumor is most commonly caused by vestibular schwannomas, which arise directly from the sheath of the vestibular nerve (V...

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.

متن کاملTrochlear and abducens nerve neurinomas accompanied by a cerebellopontine angle meningioma--case report.
A 66-year-old male presented with cerebellovestibular symptoms and hypesthesia of the V2 area of his face. Neuroimaging only detected a cerebellopontine angle (CPA) meningioma. The CPA meningioma was removed using the lateral suboccipital approach, which exposed small neurinomas arising from the trochlear and abducens nerves. Both neurinomas were removed intracapsularly. Postoperatively hypesth...
