Cerebellopontine angle craniopharyngioma

min - Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery, 1990
A rare case of craniopharyngioma presenting as a primary cerebellopontine angle tumour is reported. Unlike normal craniopharyngiomas, preoperative diagnosis is often difficult. Radical removal of a completely cystic tumour is carried out through an unilateral suboccipital exposure.

Angiomas of the cerebellopontine angle

Journal of Neurology, 1981
Angiomas situated within the pontocerebellar cistern lie superficially on the ventrolateral aspect of the brain stem. Occasionally, minor extensions penetrate into the adjacent nervous structures. Five patients bearing such lesions were operated upon, using a microsurgical technique. Radical excision was performed in all cases.

Imaging of the Cerebellopontine Angle

Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2009
Pathologic processes within the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) may present because of mass effect on local structures or on the pons or cerebellum. MR imaging is superior to CT for evaluation of the complete extent of a CPA mass and for characterization of its likely nature.

Cerebellopontine Angle Paraganglioma

Otology & Neurotology, 2003
Acoustic neuroma account for 80% of cerebellopontine angle tumors. Paraganglioma is a rare tumor in this region.The authors report a case of cerebellopontine angle paraganglioma arising from the anterior inferior cerebellar artery.The clinical and radiologic features were indistinguishable from those of a neuroma, and only the intraoperative view ...

Meningiomas of the Cerebellopontine Angle

1996
Meningiomas of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) represent a clinically and surgically interesting entity. The opportunity of complete surgical excision and the incidence of impairment of nerval structures largely depend on the tumour biology that either leads to displacement of surrounding structures by an expansive type of growth or to an enveloping ...

Cerebellopontine angle lipoma

Human Pathology, 1986
Cerebellopontine angle lipomas are rare lesions that differ from other intracranial lipomas in that they typically present with slowly progressive focal signs and symptoms identical to those of other tumors of this location, and by their propensity for intimate involvement of the adjacent cranial nerves.

Meningiomas of the cerebellopontine angle

Surgical Neurology, 2000
Meningiomas of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA), although uniform in location, are diverse with regard to the site of dural origin and displacement of neurovascular structures. A study of patients with CPA meningiomas was undertaken to gain more information regarding the relationship between site of dural attachment, clinical presentation, operative ...

Meningiomas of the Cerebellopontine Angle

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1985
The majority of cerebellopontine angle tumors are acoustic neurinomas; however, 10% to 15% are meningiomas. Meningiomas are benign lesions that must be removed but may require surgical approaches different from those used for acoustic neurinomas. To determine if meningiomas could be distinguished from acoustic neurinomas clinically, findings in 20 ...

Cerebellopontine angle lipoma

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1993
A case of a cerebellopontine angle lipoma is presented with a typical clinical, audiometric and radiological features of an acoustic neuroma. The correct pre-operative diagnosis was elusive even with the aid of magnetic resonance imaging.
