Meckel's cave epidermoid with trigeminal neuralgia: CT findings.

A Kapila, S Steinbaum, D W Chakeres.   

Abstract

An epidermoid tumor of Meckel's cave was found in a middle-aged woman with trigeminal neuralgia. On CT the lesion had negative attenuation numbers of fat and extended from an expanded Meckel's cave through the porous trigeminus into the ambient and cerebellopontine angle cisterns. Surgical excision provided relief of the patient's trigeminal neuralgia.
