ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

We present a 60-year-old female diagnosed with a giant trigeminal tumor (5.2*6.4*8.2 cm) situated in the middle cranial fossa and nasopharyngeal area. The patient was operated on by endoscopic endonasal transmaxillary, transpterygoid and infratemporal approaches. Postoperatively she was stable, with no neurologic complication and no cerebrospinal fluid leakage. We review the literature on extremely large trigeminal schwannomas.
