Multi-segment Facial Nerve Schwannoma (MFNS) is a very rare tumor, benign in nature and can arise anywhere along the course of facial nerve from its origin cerebello-pontine angle to extra cranial ramification parotid space head neck. It mimic like vestibular schwannoma other schwannoma. The most common clinical presentation palsy depending upon segment involved. We report case multi-segment ex...

  Ancient schwannomas rarely found in the central nervous system and ancient change in an intracranial schwannoma (intracranial portion of the trigeminal nerve) is extremely rare. A seventy-year man presented with headache of 3 months duration and one episode of generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Imaging findings were suggestive of left temporal high grade lesion. During surgery there was well...

404 Petrous apex cholesterol granulomas are relatively rare lesions. They are usually unilocular and treated with simple fenestration. However, lobulated lesions require total removal of debris inside the cysts. Herein, we report a first case with a lobulated petrous apex cholesterol granuloma. The lesion extended from cerebello-pontine angel to the clivus. It was lobulated and contained debris...

Brugada syndrome (BrS) is one of the most common causes of sudden death in young people. It usually presents with life-threatening arrhythmias in subjects without remarkable medical history. The need for surgical treatment may unmask BrS in otherwise asymptomatic patients. The best anaesthesiological treatment in such cases is matter of debate. We report a case of neurosurgical treatment of cer...

This brilliant and sumptuously produced monograph deals with 29 histologically certified cases of tumours of the cerebello-pontile angle, involving the VIII (acoustic) nerve. It illustrates' the extreme specialisation that has taken place in cerebral surgery of recent years, largely the work of the late Sir Victor Horsley at the National Hospital for Paralysed and Epileptic in London. Dr. Harve...
