Abstract A case of childhood teratoma in the cerebellopontine angle associated with shunted congenital hydrocephalus is presented. The need for detailed computed axial scanning with and without contrast in congenital hydrocephalus not associated with intraventricular hemorrhage or myelodysplasia is emphasized.

The article is devoted to rare brain pathology, i.e. epidermoid cysts. The histological picture of the tumor is described; the classification is given. On the basis of our own clinical observations and a literature review, the features of the clinical manifestations of cholesteatoma of the cerebellopontine angle, modern approaches to the diagnosis and tactics of complex treatment are presented.

AbstractVestibular schwannomas (VSs) account for ∼ 70% of all tumors of the cerebellopontine angle (CPA). Their clinical presentation is often insidious, with progressive hearing loss and involvement of other cranial nerves. Spontaneous hemorrhage in those tumors is very unusual, and generally presents with acute clinical features such as nausea, vomiting, headache and altered consciousness, usually with marked dysfunction of the cranial nerve involved, and with new deficits of neighboring cranial nerves. Asymptomatic patients are extremely rare. We present a case report of an incidental VS with asymptomatic bleeding, which evolved to death after surgery.
