case_images: Axial brain MRI images in T2-weighted image (A), CISS image (B), and T1-post contrast image (C) showing a well-defined lesion (arrow) at the left cerebellopontine angle extending into the left Meckel's cave (arrowhead), suggestive of trigeminal schwannoma. CISS: constructive interference in steady state image, MRI: magnetic resonance imaging

case_images: FIG1
case_images: The lesion measured approximately 2.5 cm in diameter and exhibited a hypo-intense signal on T1-weighted images and a hyper-intense signal on T2-weighted images (Figure 1).
case_images: Histopathological examination of the excised tissue revealing spindle cells characteristic of schwannoma
