Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Radiology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Trigeminal schwannomas are rare, accounting for <1% of intracranial tumors.
  • Cystic trigeminal schwannomas are exceptionally rare, representing only 7% of these tumors.

Observation:

  • This study presents two male cases of cystic trigeminal schwannomas.
  • Detailed documentation of patient symptoms, diagnostic procedures, and imaging characteristics was performed.

Findings:

  • The radiological classification of cystic trigeminal schwannomas presents a diagnostic challenge.
  • Radiologists play a crucial role in the accurate diagnosis and management of this rare entity.

Implications:

  • Improved understanding of cystic trigeminal schwannomas aids in diagnostic accuracy.
