48-year-old woman with a cerebellopontine angle mass.

ABSTRACT

Intracranial chondromas are rare benign neoplasms with an estimated incidence rate of 0.2­0.3%. They usually occur at the skull base, or arise from the dura and leptomeninges. Rarely, they have been reported at the cerebellopontine (CP) angle. Here we describe an interesting case of CP angle chondroma which was clinically and radiologically diagnosed as schwannoma and meningioma.
