Hemifacial Spasm Caused by a Huge Tentorial Meningioma
Journal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 11/04/09
Park H et al. – A rare case of hemifacial spasm caused by an ipsilateral tentorial meningioma is described. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a huge tumor in the right cerebellar hemisphere, distant to the cerebello–pontine cistern. The facial–vestibulocochlear nerve complex was stretched by the shift of the brainstem and the right cerebello–pontine cistern was effaced. After removing the tumor, the hemifacial spasm resolved completely.
