Abstract

In this report we document the clinical, radiologic, surgical, and pathologic features of a cerebellopontine angle (CPA) lipoma, including the CT visualization of the seventh and eighth cranial nerves passing through the middle of the lesion, a feature previously undescribed. Comparison is made with other reported CPA lipomas.
