    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Pathology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Cerebellopontine angle (CPA) lesions often present as tumors.
    • Gumma, a tertiary syphilis manifestation, is an uncommon CPA lesion.
    • Differentiating CPA gumma from other masses is clinically significant.

    Observation:

    • A rare case of CPA gumma is presented.
    • The lesion's appearance on computed tomography (CT) scan was documented.
    • Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis.

    Findings:

    • Cerebral gumma can mimic common CPA tumors.
    • CT imaging and histological analysis are crucial for diagnosis.
    • This is the first reported case of CPA gumma visualized on CT and confirmed histologically.

    Implications:

    • Awareness of CPA gumma is important for differential diagnosis.
    • CT and histology aid in identifying this rare lesion.
    • Further research may clarify the diagnostic criteria for cerebral gumma.
