Journal Title: Polski Przegląd Otorynolaryngologiczny - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
We report a case of 31 year old Man, with an epidermoid tumor of the right cerebellopontine angle (CPA). He has 1,5 year history of headaches. Non cranial nerves deficit was presented. Non hearing loss reported. Cerebellopontine Angle Epidermoid Cyst is the third most frequent lesion after acustic neuromas, and meningiomas. Due to the size and the localization of the tumor in internal auditory canal, the middle cranial fossa approach was used to remove the tumor. The hearing and the facial nerve were preserved.
