Sadat Muzammil1, King Sun Leong.   

Abstract

We present the case of a 35-year-old female who had paraesthesia and numbness on the left side of her face. Initially the ophthalmic division and maxillary divisions on the trigeminal nerve were involved, but later involved the mandibular division as well. On MRI, a cerebellopontine angle (CPA) epidermoid cyst was detected. After 18 months of follow up, her symptoms remain stable and she is being managed conservatively.
