Undiagnosed epidermoid cyst presenting as trigeminal neuralgia: a need for MRI.

A W Fitt1, T J Pigott, P V Marks.   

Abstract

A case of an epidermoid cyst in the cerebello-pontine angle presenting with facial pain is reported. The tumour was discovered during neurovascular decompression of the fifth nerve. A pre-operative CT scan was normal. The role of neuroradiological investigation in young patients with trigeminal neuralgia is discussed.
