  • Title: [Intracerebral schwannoma. Apropos of a case].
    Author: Ben Rhouma T, Bouzakoura C, Boudaouara MA, Mhiri C, Hentati K.
    Journal: Neurochirurgie; 1988; 34(2):123-7. PubMed ID: 3043245.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case of intracerebral Schwannoma discovered in a 13 year old girl who had shown symptoms of increased intracranial pressure since four years and half evolving progressively to aggravation. CT scan images and operating appearance were uncharacteristic. Histological diagnosis of the tumor was only established at pathological examination. The tumor recurred 15 months after in spite of its complete extirpation. The characteristics of this extremely rare localization of Schwannoma (14 cases published in the literature) are pin-pointed by the authors.
