case_images: Brain MRI. Axial T2w (a,b) ADC map (c) and Gd T1w (d) images. Extensive hyperintense mass in the left cerebellopontine angle extended upward into the cerebellum with lower peripheral ADC values and subtle peripheral linear irregular enhancement after gadolinium injection. The fourth ventricle, medulla oblongata and the cerebellum are dislocated and compressed.
