Trigeminal Neurinoma

✓ The authors report eight cases of trigeminal neurinoma managed over the past 13 years with radical resection at a single-stage operation. Three patients were male and five were female, ranging in age from 25 to 56 years (mean 41.5 years). One had von Recklinghausen's disease. The tumors were located mainly within the middle fossa in two cases and within the posterior fossa in two, and extended both supra- and infratentorially in four cases. Facial pain and hearing disturbance were the main symptoms, with various other symptoms such as focal seizures, hemiparesis, gait disturbance, increased intracranial pressure, and visual disturbance also being noted. All patients underwent radical tumor resection with either a transpetrosal transtentorial or orbitozygomatic infratemporal surgical approach; the approach depended on the topography of the tumor. Total removal was performed in all cases. Only one patient, treated early in the series, required a second operation to remove the tumor completely. In another case the tumor recurred 5 years after the operation. There has been no operative mortality, but injury or permanent damage to the trigeminal branches was inevitable in many cases. The surgical results were excellent in three patients and good in five.

Abstract Two cases of trigeminal neurinoma located solely in the cavernous sinus are reported. Preoperatively, magnetic resonance imaging provided the accurate localization of the lesions, allowing precise planning of the surgical approach, that is, a subtemporal lateral approach and a pterional superior approach, respectively. The neurinomas inside the cavernous sinus were removed successfully, and the patients developed no new neurological deficits except for anesthesia in the 1st division of the trigeminal nerve. The characteristic magnetic resonance imaging findings of trigeminal neurinoma in the cavernous sinus are presented, and the different surgical approaches are discussed.

Preoperative Examination

Abstract The trigeminal sensory evoked potentials (TEPs) in two patients with trigeminal neurinoma are reported. In contrast to the two cases previously reported by others, in which the preoperative TEPs were normal, the two cases reported herein showed significant changes on the affected side: (a) the sensory thresholds were greater and (b) the peak latencies of P19and N28were longer on the affected side than those on the normal side. Our results confirm that a TEP measurement is very useful in a preoperative examination of patients with trigeminal neurinoma, when the function of the trigeminal nerve should be evaluated objectively.

Histopathological Studies

✓ An unusual case of a metastatic adenocarcinoma located entirely within the trigeminal nerve is reported. The patient, with a history of breast cancer, presented with a pure trigeminal mononeuropathy. The neurological and neuroradiological findings in this patient were quite similar to those of a patient with trigeminal neurinoma. Surgery revealed that the tumor was located within the trigeminal nerve and its appearance was similar to that of a neurinoma. However, histopathological studies proved the tumor to be an adenocarcinoma that was related to the breast cancer treated earlier. A solitary metastatic tumor arising solely in a trigeminal nerve is quite rare; this is the first report of such a case metastasized from breast cancer.
