Radiographic Presentation

Glossopharyngeal (that is, cranial nerve IX) schwannomas are extremely rare nerve sheath tumors that frequently mimic the more common vestibular schwannoma in their clinical as well as radiographic presentation. Although rare in adults, this tumor has not been reported in a child. The authors report the case of a 10-year-old boy who presented with several months of unilateral hearing loss. He was found to have a large right cerebellopontine angle tumor. Given the boy's primary complaint of hearing loss and the appearance of the lesion on imaging, the tumor was initially believed to be a schwannoma of the vestibular nerve. It was found intraoperatively, however, to originate from the glossopharyngeal nerve. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of a glossopharyngeal schwannoma in a child.

Intratumoral Bleeding

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.
