Abstract:
A report is given of a 24-year-old woman with a malignant cerebellopontine angle tumour, which appeared to have arisen from the 8th nerve sheath. It had a predominantly fasciculated, spindle-cell, Schwannoma-like structure, but also included rhabdomyoblastic elements and a diagnosis of malignant triton tumour is proposed. The patient did not have Von Recklinghausen's disease.
