Hypoglossal nerve (cranial nerve XII) schwannomas are such an example, usually arising intracranially and, in exceptional cases, extending into the extracranial c...
متن کاملGiant recurrent glomus jugulotympanicum with intracranial, extracranial, and nasophayngeal extension: The imaging role in clinical management
We present a 50-year-old male with a massive glomus jugulotympanicum that demonstrated extracranial extension breaking through the skin in the posterior auricular region, intracranial extension into the middle cranial fossa, and nasopharyngeal extension involving the entire length of the eustachian tube. Characteristic CT, MR, angiographic, and pathologic findings are demonstrated in this case....
متن کاملGiant Parapharyngeal Pleomorphic Adenoma with Intracranial Extension: a case report
Parapharyngeal pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is a benign tumor of the salivary glands. We report a rare case of giant benign parapharyngeal PA with intracranial extension in a 69-year-old male who presented with aural fullness. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a large, lobulated, well-defined mass in parapharyngeal space with erosion of the base of the middle cranial fossa and extension to th...
