Vestibular Paroxysmia Presenting With Atypical Positional Nystagmus Resembling Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo. [PDF]
ABSTRACT A 69‐year‐old man presented with recurrent vertigo triggered by positional changes, left aural fullness, and left hemifacial spasm. The supine roll test showed direction‐changing apogeotropic horizontal nystagmus lasting < 1 min. Brain MRI demonstrated neurovascular contact between the cranial nerve VII/VIII complex and the anterior inferior ...

Gadolinium enhanced 3D proton density driven equilibrium MR imaging in the evaluation of cisternal tumor and associated structures: comparison with balanced fast-field-echo sequence. [PDF]
Although Gadolinium enhanced bFFE is commonly used to evaluate cisternal tumors, banding artifact may interrupt interpretation and adjacent nerve and vessels differentiation is known to be difficult.

Primary optic nerve sheath schwannoma: A case report and literature review
Schwannomas are benign tumors of the peripheral nervous system that arise from Schwann cells. Intracranial schwannomas most commonly arise from the vestibulocochlear nerve, followed by the fifth nerve.

Facial Nerve Schwannoma: The Rare/Great Mimicker of Vestibular Schwannoma/Neuroma
Schwannomas are benign tumors arising from Schwann cells which are a protective casing of nerves, composing myelin sheath and can develop in any nerve where Schwann cells are present. Most common are vestibulocochlear nerve schwannomas.

Vestibular schwannoma with fluid-fluid levels mimicking aneurysm bone cyst
Of 6%-8%, cerebral tumors are intracranial schwannomas, also known as neurinomas, which frequently arise from the nerve sheath. Eighth cranial nerve (CN VIII), also known as the vestibulocochlear nerve, is the site of genesis of the majority of ...
