Summary
Intracanalicular meningiomas are rare tumors that mimic vestibular schwannomas on MRI. This case highlights subtle imaging features that can suggest meningioma over schwannoma.
Area of Science:
- Neurosurgery
- Neuroradiology
- Neuropathology
Background:
- Intracanalicular meningiomas are rare tumors.
- Differentiating them from vestibular schwannomas is challenging.
- Vestibular schwannomas are the most common tumors of the internal auditory canal.
