  • Title: Surgical results in unusual cerebellopontine angle tumours.
    Author: Grey PL, Moffat DA, Hardy DG.
    Journal: Clin Otolaryngol Allied Sci; 1996 Jun; 21(3):237-43. PubMed ID: 8818495.
    Abstract:
    Vestibular schwannomas account for 84% of cerebellopontine angle (CPA) lesions. The remaining CPA tumours comprise a fascinating group of lesions which may present in a similar fashion. Fortunately, advances in neuroradiology have increased our diagnostic accuracy of these lesions. This paper describes the surgical results of a series of 69 CPA lesions which were not vestibular schwannomas. The majority of these unusual CPA tumours were meningiomas, cholesteatomas and neuromas of other cranial nerves in the posterior fossa.
